尽管每年都会发生（这也是我们所预料到的），苏门答腊和婆罗洲每年肆虐的森林大火仍然是戏剧性的、威胁性的和灾难性的。报纸经常将这些火灾与刀耕火种农业联系起来，这是这些地区的一种古老现象，在适当的年份，还与厄尔尼诺现象联系起来。尽管这一说法的真实性值得怀疑，但所审查的研究表明，这种规模的森林火灾不超过20年，而且它们主要是由干燥的泥炭地（泥炭沼泽）被点燃或意外着火引起的。反过来，泥炭地的排水往往与种植油棕榈的愿望有关。这里讨论的出版物是日本和印度尼西亚学者撰写的论文集，其中大多数人曾隶属于京都大学东南亚研究中心。作者是农业、生态学和环境研究领域的专家，包括环境人类学和环境史、森林科学、水文学和保护生物学。这本书包括14章，还有一个导言和一个结语。大约一半的页数是专门用于对苏门答腊廖内省东海岸的Giam Siak Bagil-Bukit Batu生物圈保护区（gsk-bb br）的案例研究，该自然保护区于2009年被指定为自然保护区。14章分为三个部分。第一部分，题为“热带生物量社会的范围”，包括第1 - 3章，涉及森林，森林历史，以及东南亚的林业概述，但重点是印度尼西亚。第一章是本书中为数不多的几个地方之一，其中历史深度的分析soccasionally去1950年以后（pp。（第31 - 47段）;唉，这不是这本书中最好的部分之一，尽管作者（水野康介和RetnoKusumaningtyas）使用了荷兰语来源，值得特别称赞。第2章（由Motokos. FujitaandHiromitsuSamejima）是其中一个较好的部分，主要是印度尼西亚的热带雨林。第三章（ShuichiKawai & KazuoWatanabe）主要在印度尼西亚评估了人工林的生物量生产。作者认为，在2000年后的树木种植园中发现的集约化管理以前是看不见的，从而忽视了爪哇柚木种植园的悠久历史，至少从世纪后期开始就一直进行集约化管理。第二部分，包括第4 - 7章，详细介绍了泥炭沼泽。热带（东南亚）泥炭沼泽的一般概述，
Althoughtheyhappeneveryyear (andarethusanticipated), theforestfiresthat rage annually through Sumatra and Borneo are nevertheless dramatic, threatening, and catastrophic. Newspapers often link these fires to slash-and-burn agriculture, an age-old phenomenon in these regions, and, in the appropriate years, to El Niño. Although there is doubtlessly some truth in this, the study underreviewherearguesthatonthisscaletheforestfiresarenotolderthan20 years, and that they are mainly caused by desiccated peatlands (peat swamps) havingbeensetalight, oraccidentallyhavingcaughtfire. Drainageofpeatlands, in turn, is often linked to the wish to plant oil palms. The publication dealt with here is a collection of essays, written by Japanese and Indonesian scholars, most of whom were affiliated to the Centre for Southeast Asian Studies, Kyoto University, at one time or another. The authors are specialists in agriculture, ecology, andenvironmentalresearch, includingenvironmentalanthropology and environmental history, forest science, hydrology, and conservation biology. The book contains 14 chapters, in addition to an introduction and an epilogue. About half the number of pages is dedicated to a case study of the Giam Siak Kecil-Bukit Batu Biosphere Reserve (gsk-bb br) on the east coast of Riau province, Sumatra, a nature reserve designated as such in 2009. The 14 chapters are organized in three parts. Part 1, entitled ‘The Scope of TropicalBiomassSociety’, andcontainingchapters1–3, dealswithforests, forest history, andforestryinSoutheastAsiainbroadoutline, thoughwithanemphasisonIndonesia. Chapter1isoneofthefewplacesinthebookwherethehistoricaldepthoftheanalysisoccasionallygoesbeyond1950 (pp. 31–47); alas, it’snot one of the better sections of the book, though the authors (Kosuke Mizuno & RetnoKusumaningtyas) deservespecialcreditforhavingusedDutch-language sources. Chapter2 (byMotokoS. FujitaandHiromitsuSamejima), onbiodiversity, mainly of Indonesia’s tropical rainforests, is one of those better sections. Chapter3 (ShuichiKawai&KazuoWatanabe) assessesthebiomassproduction of forest plantations, mainly in Indonesia. The authors argue that the intensive management to be found in post-2000 tree plantations was previously unseen, thereby ignoring the long history of teak plantations on Java, which have been intensively managed at least from the late nineteenth century. Part2, consistingofchapters4–7, goesintodetailregardingthepeatswamps. A general overview of tropical (Southeast Asian) peat swamps is presented in
