Reviews

A coming-together of noted authorities in [the energy and conservation] fields seeking a beneficial solution to both their respective purposes is heartening indeed. Given this, and all the information presented in its pages, Renewable Energy and Wildlife Conservation is a book that should be read by all who are professionally involved in both these fields as well as any others who are simply in search of a better understanding of two of the defining challenges of our age. —Johannes E. Riutta, The Well-Read Naturalist
