Biodiversity in Managed Landscapes: Theory and Practice

by Robert C. Szaro, David W. Johnston

The conservation of biodiversity has profound implications for managing natural resources with the need for scientific information as a foundation for management decisions increasing dramatically. The intent of this book is to look beyond the theory of biodiversity to the principles,
practices, and policies needed for its conservation. Its objectives are to provide the scientific basis for understanding biodiversity, document case examples of theory and concepts applied at differing scales, and examine policies that affect its conservation.
