It has a rich diversity -- natural and cultural, and diversity in all walks of life. Most of its uniqueness is unknown because of its remoteness. Even, the native people are not aware of them. This book aims to describe the uniqueness of the Central Himalaya in terms of its natural and cultural diversity in detail. Supported by original figures and primary data, this book is empirically tested. It is mainly based on observation and participation and the use of a qualitative approach. Although lots of work has been carried out on the various aspects of the Himalayan region yet, a detailed description of the natural and cultural diversity is yet to be done. This book steps forward to elaborate on some of the unique natural and cultural features of the Central Himalaya, which are worthy to be known about. It contains a total of 10 chapters. Four chapters are devoted to natural diversity and four chapters comprise cultural diversity. Besides, the introduction and conclusions are the first and the last chapters of the book, respectively. The book is the first of its kind and will be useful to all stakeholders -- students of all standards, research scholars, academicians, policymakers, native people, tourists, and the general public. 001476017 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed August 14, 2023). 001476017 650_0 $$aBiodiversity$$zHimalaya Mountains. 001476017 650_0 $$aCultural pluralism$$zHimalaya Mountains. 001476017 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001476017 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aSati, Vishwambhar Prasad$$tNatural and Cultural Diversity in the Himalaya$$dCham : Springer International Publishing AG,c2023$$z9783031393624 001476017 830_0 $$aSpringerBriefs in environmental science,$$x2191-5555 001476017 852__ $$bebk 001476017 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-39363-1$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001476017 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1476017$$pGLOBAL_SET 001476017 980__ $$aBIB 001476017 980__ $$aEBOOK 001476017 982__ $$aEbook 001476017 983__ $$aOnline 001476017 994__ $$a92$$bISE
