Its various chapters show how and why trade-offs are made, and why conservationists need to think very hard about what, if anything, to do about them. The book argues that conservationists must carefully weigh up, and be explicit about, the trade-offs that they make every day in deciding what to save.  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eDiscusses the wider non-biological issues that surround making decisions about which species and biogeographic areas to prioritise for conservation\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFocuses on questions such as: What are these wider issues that are influencing the decisions we make?
