Trade Review
"This handbook is a comprehensive roadmap to our nation's most powerful environmental law. It is a must-read for agency officials, lawyers, community activists, business people, and public and private land owners who need to know what the Endangered Species Act requires and how to work with others in this most contentious field." -- Bruce Babbitt * Former Secretary of the Interior *
"A user-friendly guide to navigate through the ESA's policy and practice. . . . Written in an extremely accessible manner, the book is intended for a wide audience. . . . The best single treatment I have found in communicating the ESA's practical requirements and implications." -- Conservation Biology
