Description

This book explores the difficult questions as to why we assign certain feelings and values towards different groups of living things, and what our motivations are for considering these living things as being worthy and unworthy of our respect and efforts for accommodating in our interactions with the natural world. It is critical to understand why most people dislike most species, because almost all contribute invaluable services for the welfare of society. While the world’s most charismatic species are currently receiving support for conservation, unfortunately the species are not particularly attractive, and are being endangered by extinction, with the result that the welfare of the planet’s ecology is also threatened.

The topic that is timely, given the increased focus on climate change, our role in this process and the negative consequences of this global phenomenon for biodiversity.

Author’s writing is very detailed and comprehensive analysis with a well-structured composition that imparts clarity of the message.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
