About the Book

Originally published in 2007, Ecological Restoration has become one of the seminal books in this quickly developing field. This completely revised and reorganized edition presents up-to-date developments and current trends in the field by two of its leaders. The authors focus on clarifying terminology, stressing the importance of precision in language for a field that is quickly becoming an established discipline.

About the Author :
Andre F. Clewell is a consulting restoration practitioner and plant ecologist, and past president of the Society for Ecological Restoration. James Aronson is a restoration ecologist at the Center of Functional and Evolutionary Ecology, Montpellier, France, and the Missouri Botanical Garden in Saint Louis. He serves on the board of directors for the Society for Ecological Restoration.

Review :
"We know that investments in restoring ecological systems bring significant returns, enhancing the capacity of communities to adapt to climate change and improve food security, and leading to more effective efforts to alleviate poverty and protect the natural assets upon which economic growth depends. Clewell and Aronson have provided an unrivaled guidebook that enables readers to understand the science of ecological restoration, how it developed, and what to expect from this vitally important discipline in the future."--Pavan Sukhdev, author of "Corporation 2020: Transforming Business for Tomorrow's World" "One of our best tools for confronting urgent global environmental challenges is ecological restoration, described with clarity and skill in this revised edition of the book that sets the standards in this field."--Peter H. Raven, President Emeritus, Missouri Botanical Garden "successful....an easily readable book"-- "Basic and Applied Ecology" "[T]his slim, accessible volume presents a comprehensive introduction to the subject....The reworked organizational structure of the text, new case studies, and other refinements further improve an already successful publication."-- "Quarterly Review of Biology" "Highly recommended, especially for college and technical school library collections as well as for professionals in and aspirants to this exciting new scientific field."-- "Midwest Book Review" "The bottom line is that the two editions of this book are a great addition to anyone's library and occupy a unique position in the recent spate of restoration texts. Kudos to the authors."-- "Restoration Ecology"
