Book Description

Publication Date: Jan 1 2010

As global demand for forest products increases, conserving biodiversity has become more urgent and challenging. Forestry and Biodiversity advocates adaptive management – a structured approach to learning by doing – to sustain biodiversity in managed forests. It draws on the theory and principles of conservation biology and forest ecology and illustrates them, and the challenges they pose, through a practical, real-world study of commercial forestry in a coastal temperate rainforest. This book will be of interest to those who plan, or hope to influence, forest practices and the future of the environment.

Review

There is a vast literature on ecologically sustainable forest management. But there are precious few scientifically defensible examples of it. This book is truly a rare gem that does exactly that -- provides a well-written and scientifically well argued case for how ecologically sustainable forest management should be done. The work described in this book sets a very high benchmark for others to reach. I highly recommend this volume to any forest ecologist, forest manager, or forest policy maker.

(David Lindenmayer, professor of forest wildlife management and nature conservation at the Australian National University, Canberra)
