Bat Detectors
Welcome return to print of this magnificent tour-de-force, which attempts to take sentimentality out of conservation and invest the ultimate control of conservation and development with the African nations.
`Conservation has long operated on the comfortable belief that Africa is a paradise to be defended, even against the people who have lived there for thousands of years. The continuing reluctance to accept the link between vigorous indigenous culture and the survival of wildlife has led to conservation programs doomed to eventual failure because they depend on building barriers of one sort or another between people and wildlife. Such persistent blindness is tragic.... ' - from the text of the book.
`Should be essential reading for anyone with an interest in the future of the African continent, its wildlife and its people' - David Tomlinson, New Scientist.
