Description

With the continual growth of the world's urban population, biodiversity in towns and cities will play a critical role in global biodiversity.

This is the first book to provide an overview of international developments in urban biodiversity and sustainable design.

It brings together the views, experiences and expertise of leading scientists and designers from the industrialised and pre-industrialised countries from around the world.

The contributors explore the biological, cultural and social values of urban biodiversity, including methods for assessing and evaluating urban biodiversity, social and educational issues, and practical measures for restoring and maintaining biodiversity in urban areas.

Contributions come from presenters at an international scientific conference held in Erfurt, Germany 2008 during the 9th Conference of the Parties of the Convention on Biodiversity.

This is also Part of our Conservation Science and Practice book series (with Zoological Society of London).
