Reviews

From the reviews: The panel of contributors representing a variety of schools of thought is presented to the reader as an opportunity to embrace a wide landscape of philosophical problems within the fields of environmental science and nature conservation. I highly recommend this book to evolutionary biologists, systems ecologists, and environmental stakeholders, with the hope that it will contribute to new avenues of research in ecosystem resilience. (Jean-Francois Ponge, BioScience, February, 2014)
