Books like Introduction to Conservation Biology by Richard B. Primack
Co‑authored by Richard B. Primack and Anna Sher, the book builds on Primack’s A Primer and Essentials of Conservation Biology, adding three new chapters on population biology, conservation tools, restoration ecology, and future directions. Updated sections on sustainable development, ex‑situ conservation, and key contemporary events—such as the poaching of Cecil the lion, the first papal environmental encyclical, and the Paris Climate Accord—keep the material current. With 12 chapters that flow from biodiversity and its value to threats, population and species‑level conservation, ecosystems, and sustainable development, each chapter begins with general principles illustrated in full color and concludes with summaries, suggested readings, discussion questions, and extensive review statements.
