Welcome Tomas! I think your book sounds very interesting based on the title. I love the idea of Forest gardens, but it's the whole design part that bogs me down! There are sooooo many variables (like height, light requirements, pH requirements, water needs, pest and disease assistance requirements, and etc.)! I hope I can learn to understand it all better in time.

I would give this book a 7 out of 10
It was a fantastic book and had so may great ideas and lots of inspiration, but not as much "how to" as I prefer. However, watching his live webinars has been helpful in gaining a little more insight into the "how-to" end of it. He is currently teaching a weekly webinar series on Forest Ecology and how to use forest ecology principles in starting a Restoration Agriculture farm.
You can come along and see the webinars for free too, you just have to sign up here: https://www.eatcommunity.com/a/2752/pLFZqpjQ He's teaching today and for the next few Wednesdays.
