It challenges many conventions  of conservation biology by exposing certain weaknesses of widely  accepted principles. Combining contributions from both the school and  the new breed of conservation biologists, this insightful text  focuses primarily on topics the are integral to the daily activities  of conservation biologists. Several chapters address ecosystem  restoration and biotic invasions as well as the the mechanics of  population viability analyses, which are now a routine facet of  conservation efforts. A case history approach is implemented  throughout the book, with the use of practical real-world examples.  Furthermore, an in-depth look at quantitative analyses is presented,  allowing for models and mathematical analyses to pinpoint limitations  in existing data and guide research toward those aspects of biology  that are most likely to be critical to the dynamics of a species or  an ecosystem.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1997-10-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e ISBN-10: 9780412096617\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780412096617\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4615-6051-7\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 254cm x178cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 576\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44358556188812,"sku":"9780412096617","price":153.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780412096617_aa83a370-9a99-47e1-9b33-c499a2558e60.jpg?v=1755108527","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780412096617","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
