This book uses primary documents as a lens through which to examine historical and present-day efforts to protect endangered species in the United States and around the world.

In this thought-provoking work, author Edward P. Weber examines the values, policies, challenges, and approaches to endangered species conservation over the past 200 years. Using primary source documents and in-depth analysis of the issues, the reference tracks the evolution of species protection and conservation in the United States, and offers a brief look at global programs in the United States and other parts of the world. The book surveys how different countries are faring in protecting their plant and animal life, and considers which guidelines and programs hold the most promise for success in the future.





Chapters compare and contrast past and present attitudes regarding endangered species and extinction and identify the influence of major organizations and individuals central to the debate over endangered species. Judiciously selected primary documents also explore the impact of species endangerment and loss on natural ecosystemsand ultimately, on humankind itself.

Arvustused

The information is offered in an upfront and unassuming manner, avoiding complex terminology typical of many books on endangered species and conservation. As a result, this book is appropriate for all levels of readership, especially those with an interest in endangered species. Thus, it is a useful addition to general collections. Summing Up: Recommended. All readers. * Choice * This is a beneficial addition to reference collections for the serious study of U.S. environmental policies and laws. * Library Journal * This is an important topic, broadly presented here in a historical setting. The language is clear and accessible to a wide range of readers. Many kinds of libraries will benefit from having this volume in their collections, from middle schools and public libraries to colleges and universities. * ARBA * The collection of primary sources alone is enough to recommend this book. As a searchable resource, structured around an historical frame, it becomes a boon to a student who is just beginning their research on endangered species, as well as those who are already experienced researchers, but looking to delve deeply in a particular area. . . . This resource is excellent for someone new to the topic or the undergraduate student trying to narrow their topic. The bibliographies and cited works are excellent ways for students to crack into endangered species. * Reference Reviews *
