Editorial Reviews
Review
“Birders will recognize many of their favorite haunts in the important bird areas listed here, but few really understand the global significance of these places. This book puts each site in a global context, and also provides an overview of the practical issues and challenges of bird conservation in the twenty-first century.”
—David Allen Sibley, author of The Sibley Guide to Birds

“A concise archive of wide-ranging information for conservationists, field biologists, birders, and students of the natural sciences, and a valuable guide for natural history travel.”
—Peter Matthiessen, author of The Birds of Heaven: Travels with Cranes

“This landmark book is indispensable for conservationists, ornithologists, and birders alike.”
—Kenn Kaufman, author of Birds of North America

“A must-read for all birders that will open their eyes to the critical significance of preserving these globally important bird areas. The very future of our bird populations depend on it.”
—Donald and Lillian Stokes, authors of Stokes Field Guide to Birds

“Everyone who cares about birds should own this book.”
—David S. Wilcove, Princeton University, author of The Condor’s Shadow

“A book that every birder (and nature lover and
land manager) should read and discuss.”
—David Allen Sibley, author of The Sibley Guide to Birds
