The first high-level monograph on fundamentals of nature conservation.
This book is a first high-level monograph on scientific fundamentals of nature conservation and biodiversity protection. It is held at many top university libraries and national libraries in Europe, America, Asia, Australia and Africa.
It has enormous potential for being cited. Very useful in research, practical work on nature conservation and environmental education.
The book contains many imprtant innovations.
One of them is an absolutely new approach to organize and analyze the huge mass of facts on an-made impact, and various issues of conservation and environmental protection. This approach is using the fundamental concept of levels of life systems. This new approach was used in the book to consider and to put into ascientific system many facts.
The book is highly recommended.
