WCS State of the Wild 2008-2009 September 10, 2008
Excellent information presented and summarized in an easy to read format. The book contains an especially informative and thought provoking look at global climate change and impacts on wild places and wild organisms. This is a great resource for anyone interested in conservation and could readily be used in a college level Environmental Science class.
A much needed reference June 24, 2008

State of the Wild is a much needed reference. This particular volume, the first I have read, ponders the interrelation of the health of wildlife health, the health of ecosystem and the health of humans and their pets and domesticated animals. By the way, this integratoing approach of human and ecosystem health is the approach for 2008 of the Ramsar Wetlands Treaty.
A sizable part of the book contains current statistics on the state of the world's wildlife, giving a solid reference to all those interested in conservation today.
A must-have addition to your library if you are interested in wildlife and Nature.
