Reviews
'Eminently readable and thoroughly referenced, Wildlife Politics fills a great void in the literature. It will make an excellent primary text in classes on conservation politics and an excellent supplementary text in survey courses on conservation, which usually give short shrift to politics and thus leave students unprepared.' David Johns, Biological Conservation
'The utility of this book to students and scholars lies in its diversity of subject matter and the depth in which subjects are explored.' J. Organ, Choice
'This is an incredibly well-researched overview and survey of the factors, issues, and considerations that are relevant to conservation of biological diversity in the Unites States and around the world. This book would be an excellent reference and starting point for students, policy practitioners, and wildlife managers who want to gain a greater appreciation for the complexities of wildlife politics.' Brett Hartl, The Quarterly Review of Biology
'Wildlife Politics is an impressive summary of many of the social and political issues that shape conservation ... this will be a valuable resource for those interested in wildlife politics, wherever they are in the world.' Rebecca Nesbit, The Biologist
