Salient events from Singapore\u2019s colonial era leading to her independence in the 20th century are masterfully woven into the Garden\u2019s narrative. As Singapore developed, the purpose and landscape of the Botanic Gardens responded in tandem. Zoological efforts were ceased and horticultural research for economic and medicinal use became the primary focus. Moreover, the scientific inquiry conducted in the Botanic Gardens by the British was also a means to understand our environment. Barnard\u2019s history of the Botanic Gardens comes at an important time as the Gardens become Singapore\u2019s first UNESCO World Heritage Site, thus deepening the roots of Singapore\u2019s heritage and story.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>To learn more about the book, click <a href=\"http:\/\/nuspress.nus.edu.sg\/products\/natures-colony-empire-nation-and-environment-in-the-singapore-botanic-gardens?variant=17697829381\">this<\/a>.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The history of Singapore Botanic Gardens is now a walk in the park thanks to Assoc.
