Description
Rewilding: A Global Approach to Conservation This book offers a comprehensive overview of rewilding, a novel conservation approach that seeks to restore natural processes and ecosystems. Through an interdisciplinary lens, it explores the key definitions, initiatives, and challenges of rewilding, examining both its potential benefits and limitations. The authors collate current scholarship on rewilding, discussing its merits and dangers, as well as the economic and socio-political realities of using this approach in conservation. The result is a valuable resource for academics, researchers, students, and managers, as well as land managers, policy makers, and conservation practitioners. Suitable for those interested in ecology, environmental conservation, and sustainable development, rewilding provides a timely and thought-provoking exploration of the complex relationships between humans and the natural world.
