When I first started reading The Science of Hope, I was immediately impressed by its beautiful illustrations and rich content. What most impresses me about this book is that it does not just point out problems but also provides workable solutions. It connects a spectrum of field professionals across disciplines so their messages are direct, stories are empirical, and suggestions are practical. Not to mention the amazing photos taken by Scott for each animal, making this book even more compelling for people to take action and make a difference. -- Our Narratives Robinson reveals, the more that scholars learn about German operations and about Hart's determination to fit all military history into his own simplistic framework, the flimsier Boyd's thesis appears. Robinson carries out a meticulous demolition job that will be of interest to students of the Wehrmacht and to the U.S. Army and Marine Corps, demonstrating how grand theories with an emotional appeal can go a long way on the back of dubious history. -- Lawrence D.

As much at home as a coffee table book as it is as a reference guide, this book is a revelation and a celebration of nature in its finest form. It is both a beautifully captured portrait of nature and an uplifting view of what can be if we are willing to take some risks and try something new. * NZ Booklovers * Illustrated with images by one of the world's leading wildlife photographers, The Science of Hope takes you on a visual journey and shines a spotlight on hopeful conservation efforts happening around the world. * The West Australian * The book was a delight to read and it is a credit to the author and photographer. It will most certainly appeal to anyone who has even a modicum of interest in wildlife. * Wildlife Detective Blog *
