Reseña del editor:

Bioregional assessment is the effort to build knowledge about a region prior to decision-making and management action; it is an essential part of ecosystem management which gives science and scientists a crucial role in the policy-making process. Bringing together experts on a range of issues to assess existing ecological and social conditions - and providing a base of knowledge from which to develop policy options and management decisions, this volume offers a tool to anyone involved or interested in ecosystem management.

Contraportada:

Impending crises over dwindling natural resources and conflicts over land use have given birth to a new approach to environmental management and policymaking known as bioregional assessment. This book for the first time examines the assessment process through a series of detailed case studies and synthesizes the knowledge gained.
