Description
Book SynopsisHuman-wildlife conflict is an urgent challenge for conservation. Framing human-wildlife interactions strictly as conflict, however, limits the array of solutions. With a broader perspective that emphasises tolerance and coexistence, this book presents solutions to turn conflict into coexistence.
Trade Review'This is an open-minded book that seeks to examine the many facets of each case study …' Amanda Hardy, The Biologist
'It will be of great interest to life and conservation scientists because it offers a humanistic point of view that is fundamental to conservationists, but which is seldomly effectively addressed. It should also interest academics of the human sciences who are addressing other kinds of conflicts, such as political or religious polarizations … An urgent step in search for the balance necessary for human-wildlife coexistence can be found in this book.' Eduardo Bessa, The Quarterly Review of Biology
