内容説明
In the 20th century, for the first time in Earth's history, a living species - man - has become a global force capable of affecting the fate of all other species, of evolution itself, and even the global climate and the movement of ice and land masses. In this book, an international group of experts working in fields as diverse as genetics, philosophy, species ecology, zoo management, national park planning and television broadcasting, use their hands-on experience to provide informed speculation on what the future holds for wildlife and wildlands in relation to human needs. Concerned with the conservation of life, they discuss changes in human activity in the coming decades, the biological basis of sustaining nature, the tools and techniques for saving species and ecosystems, and what it will take to secure public support for these endeavours. The book's point of view is based in the biological realm, and is thus deliberately at variance with many other visions of the future. The recurring theme is that wildlife can only survive burgeoning human activity if we can identify the threats to nature soon enough to generate awareness.
The book will interest anyone concerned with the biology, management or politics of natural resources around the world: biologists, botanists, zoologists, conservation specialists, government agencies, media representatives.

内容説明
In this stimulating overview, international experts offer vital information for anticipating and meeting the environmental and ecological challenges of the next century. Representing a diverse range of specialties, the contributors examine such key topics as species extinction, ecosystem conservation and management, strategies for national parks, planning and management programmes, legislative initiatives, and conservation in the developing world. Thoughtful and provocative, the book provides a much-needed basis for planning realistic action. It will be read with interest by conservationists, government decision-makers, wildlife resource managers, and all those concerned about the issues of ecology and preservation.
