'... important textbook ... exemplary ... The material is presented very clearly in tables and figures, supported by photos and delightful line drawings.' Bulletin of the British Ecological Society 'The text is clearly crafted throughout, with good use of figures and tables and some nice additional touches. For example, the evocative description of the UK farmed landscape from the air in the opening section is, dare I say it, almost poetic! ... Overall, it is an excellent text, which, in my case, will soon become well thumbed and photocopied for use as lecture material. Birdwatchers will find much of interest in the mixture of avian natural history and applied conservation science.' IBIS 'With almost 1,000 references the book provides an exhaustive compendium of current knowledge. I found it a telling catalogue of both the power and the limitations of science ... for those looking for a thorough summary of what is known about conserving birds in British farmland Bird Conservation and Agriculture will be an important reference.' Oryx
