Publisher's Synopsis
In this informative and insightful book, top researchers examine strategies being used by governments and NGOs to protect wild areas that cross national borders and cultural, linguistic, and socioeconomic boundaries. In addition to presenting case studies from five continents, Transboundary Protected Areas: The Viability of Regional Conservation Strategies provides several theoretical overviews that suggest viable approaches to conserving biodiversity in these difficult-to-protect areas. Helpful maps, tables, and figures make geographical regions and conservation information easy to assimilate.
