Trade Review
"Along the course of a graceful and nuanced journey through the complex world of conservation, Andrew Balmford lovingly tells us about a number of highly positive examples of conservation as practiced in a series of far-flung lands, inspiring and encouraging us to continue building a sustainable world - one in which we will coexist sustainably with nature, nurturing the beauty of our glorious planet and the opportunities that it presents for all." (Peter H. Raven, president emeritus, Missouri Botanical Garden)"
