Críticas:

`The book will certainly be of use to those working in conservation, zoos, fisheries and forestry.'
TREE
`This volume explores the relevance of genetics for the conservation of species, communities and ecosystems, emphasizing actual case histories.'
Revue d'Ecologie
`This helpful book reviews case-histories of the application of genetic approaches of the conservation of natural populations of plants and animals.'
Plant Talk, 1/97
`... it is clear that the journal has started well, and could eventually become the leading forum for the discussion of all aspects of population genetics in conservation science.'
Nature, Vol.412 (2001)
