Essentials of Conservation Biology by Richard B. Primack
This volume combines theory and applied and basic research to explain the connections between conservation biology and environmental economics, ethics, law, and the social sciences. This third edition stresses the need for theory, research, and an interdisciplinary approach in solving conservation problems. Written in clear, non-technical language this book is suitable for undergraduate biology students, as well as students in other disciplines. Its extensive bibliography with over 1000 references also makes it appropriate for graduate students and researchers.
