Conservation Biology introduces foundational theories and quantitative modeling knowledge while bringing together theory, applied and basic research, and hundreds of real-world examples and stories from dozens of disciplines to teach students how to become practicing conservation biologists who protect and manage Earth's biodiversity. By bridging the life sciences, social sciences, humanities, and engineering, this text inspires the next generation of conservation leaders to tackle complex environmental challenges and become effective stewards of the world's biodiversity. A major theme throughout the text is the active role that researchers, local communities, the general public, conservation organizations, and governments can play in protecting biodiversity. The second edition of Conservation Biology is updated with the latest research, new interactive exercises, and improved diversity and inclusion to prepare upper-level undergraduates and graduate students for successful careers in conservation. The new enhanced e-book offers additional features to reinforce learning.
