The countryside is changing faster than ever. A total of 50 years of conservation achievements in the UK are now being confronted by a new complexion of economic forces that are driving change in the countryside. At the same time, new ideas in conservation are altering the role that conservation is being asked to play in negotiating the transition from past to future.
This revised edition of Bill Adams classic work tackles the new challenges in the countryside and wildlife conservation head‐on through a new “Introduction” and “Postscript” with updated arguments about naturalness and our social engagement with nature, and complemented by a new “Foreword” by Adrian Phillips.
