Editorial Reviews
Review
"Van Andel and Aronson … .Were quite successful in assembling an overview of restoration ecology and ecological restoration at large." (Phytocoenologia, August 2008)
"Restoration Ecology will foster communication and synthesis between those who practice restorations and those who conduct ecological research, particularly in the battlefields of Europe. It is a valuable assessment of work at this exciting interface." (Tree)
"Restoration ecology has been likened to battlefield medicine. Actions need to be taken even with imperfect scientific knowledge and practical knowledge develops separately from hard scientific research. Restoration Ecology will foster communication and synthesis between those who practice restoration and those who conduct ecological research, praticularly in the battlefields of Europe. It is a valuable assessment of work at this exciting interface." (Trends in Ecology and Evolution, December 2005)
"I suspect that this volume will find its way onto the shelves of many restoration researchers and practitioners and will be used as a key text in graduate courses, where it will help fill a large void. My own copy is already heavily bookmarked, and will be a constant source of research ideas and lecture material." (Environmental Conservation)
Review
"Jelte van Andel and James Aronson do a splendid job of pulling together recent European work in this area in an organized and effective way. This book synthesizes current thinking in restoration ecology and provides an up-to-date source book which will be useful to restoration ecologists everywhere."
