Pre-Owned Nature's Restoration: People and Places on the Front Lines of Conservation (Hardcover) 155963085X 9781559630856

Around the world, people are working to help nature heal itself. This is a lyrical look at examples of ordinary citizens aiming to return sizable tracts of the landscape to nature, and to health by preserving rare species, reversing negative ecological trends, and promoting greater intimacy with nature. The book also looks at the controversy that restoration projects provoke and ultimately how this movement shapes both places and people.Good Condition: Minimal damage to the cover, dust jacket may not be included, minimal wear to binding, most of the pages undamaged(e.g., minimal creases or tears), highlighting / underlining acceptable on books as long as the text is readable and markings are not excessive, no missing pages.
