Alle Exemplare der Ausgabe mit dieser ISBN anzeigen:This latest volume in the New Naturalist series provides a comprehensive study of wildlife conservation in Britain, concentrating on events in the last 30 years.
As our environment is subjected to increasing assault from climatic changes and pollutants, conservation has become a growing concern for both specialists and generalists alike.
The first chapter of this book considers the political and institutional development of nature conservation and reviews the physical and biological nature of Britain, its geology, climate and wildlife habitats.
Subsequent chapters cover the loss of habitats and species, how these losses have been managed and the techniques used to survey and monitor the integration of nature conservation policies in industries from agriculture to forestry and fisheries.
Marren continues by discussing how nature conservation has emerged from the sidelines to become a major concern. He addresses the role of the media, weighs up the successes and failures of the conservation movement and looks to what the future may hold.

Buchbeschreibung Zustand: New. (Hardcover, 2002). 2002 1st edition. Pp344. Colour & b/w photographs, b/w illustrations, bibliography. Green boards. Near fine in very good dust-wrapper. This is a valuable overview of the conservation situation in the UK at the time of publication. The author's angle of view gives the impression of a huge, externally imposed NGO exercise, rather than a description of a living landscape, and so the book offers a useful means of understanding the Conservation Industry quite as much as what is going on in the landscape itself. If the purchase of Carbon Offsets and supermarket food with a picture of a tractor on it seem ecologically meaningful actions, then read some of the older more geographical New Naturalists, beginning with the first Snowdonia book. This will put into perspective what has been lost up to the time of this present title. The movement outlined here is emphatically not working backwards towards the former position of sustainability so recently lost. Chapters include; introduction, where we are now; Part I, dramatis personae - the official conservtion agencies, the voluntary army, conservation politics, SSSI's and the law; Part II, wildlife habitats - nature reserves, the farmed environment, woods and forests, bricks and water (the urban and marine fringes); Part III, living with wildlife - development causes celebres, animals that get in our way, biodiversity, seaeagles and parrots' feathers, invading and nesting, summing up, whither nature conservation?; main events affecting nature conservation in Great Britian, 1970-2001. .
