Book Description
The earth's biodversity is currently being lost at an unprecedented rate. Conservationists attempt to reduce these losses by protecting and restoring species and habitats: correct information is vital. Using examples from bird conservation, this book describes and discusses the scientific principles conservationists use, and shows how these principles are applied to real problems. Conserving Bird Biodiversity takes a 'problem'-based approach, differing from other volumes that discuss either general conservation principles or practical techniques. It will be essential reading for students, researchers and practitioners in conservation biology and wildlife management.
Review
"This book will be important to conservationists in general, not just ornithologists. Recommended." Choice

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Reliable information is the foundation upon which local, national and international conservation efforts are based, placing research at the heart of biodiversity conservation. The fundamental role of research is diverse and includes understanding the importance of biodiversity, defining 'units' of biodiversity, priority-setting for species and sites, managing endangered and declining populations, understanding large-scale processes, making predictions about the future, and interfacing with training, education, public awareness and policy initiatives. Using real examples, researchers consider the principles underlying these manifold issues and illustrate how these principles have been applied to address actual conservation problems. The earth's biodiversity currently faces an extinction crisis that is unprecedented. Conservationists attempt to intervene in the extinction process either locally by protecting or restoring important species and habitats, or at national and international levels by influencing key policies and promoting debate. Reliable information is the foundation upon which these efforts are based, which places research at the heart of biodiversity conservation. The role of research in such conservation is diverse. It includes understanding why biodiversity is important, defining 'units' of biodiversity, priority-setting for species and sites, managing endangered and declining populations, understanding large-scale processes, making predictions about the future and interfacing with training, education, public awareness and policy initiatives. Using examples from a wide range of bird conservation work worldwide, researchers consider the principles underlying these issues, and illustrate how these principles have been applied to address actual conservation problems for students, practitioners and researchers in conservation biology.
