520    Governance failure and corruption are increasingly 
       identified as key causes of tropical deforestation. In 
       Nigeria's Edo State, once the showcase of scientific 
       forestry in West Africa,  large-scale forest conversion 
       and the virtual depletion of  timber stocks are invariably
       attributed to recent failures in forest management, and 
       are seen as yet another instance of how "things fall 
       apart" in Nigeria. Through an in-depth historical and 
       ethnographic study of forestry in Edo State, this book 
       challenges this routine linking of political and 
       ecological crisis narratives. It shows that the roots of 
       many of today's problems lie in scientific forest 
       management itself, rather than its recent abandonment, and
       moreover that many "illegal" local practices improve 
       rather than reduce biodiversity and forest cover. The book
       therefore challenges preconceptions about contemporary 
       Nigeria and highlights the need to reevaluate current 
       understandings of what constitutes "good governance" in 
       tropical forestry.
