This is an important topic at the cutting edge of world conservation and protected area management. However, the writing is rough. Run-on sentences are almost standard. I tried to use it as a text in class, but the students protested vehemently. We want them to write well, so how can we force them to read works that are poorly edited? While we don't expect it to read like a detective novel, we do expect the writing to be smoother than this. Nevertheless, it is a vital topic and the contributors were architects of the innovations discussed in the book, so they are very knowledgeable.
