The authors here focus on a specific emerging conservation model, based on a case study from the Congo Basin. They acknowledge that traditional conservation of wildlife and forests has stressed the development of national parks and reserves, but that model does not perform well in relatively small areas. And it does not take into today's realities where conservation needs to go beyond the boundaries of parks and reserves and account for multi-use lands. The authors address building partnerships for conservation, co-managed land use planning, reducing pressure on wildlife and biodiversity, and the impact of logging on biodiversity on human demography and wildlife harvest and consumption. While likely intended for professionals in relevant fields, the book is clearly written and would interest other readers who want to know more about current conservation efforts. Editors are Clark and Poulsen (environment, Duke U.). Annotation ©2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
