Books on biodiversity and conservation

摘要

Reviews are provided for 24 books published over the years 2006–2011 which have been received by Biodiversity and Conservation. These are in the general areas of ecology and the environment, mammals, birds, plants, evolution, and the human dimension of biodiversity, plus a miscellaneous work. Such batches of synoptic reviews are a new feature for Biodiversity and Conservation, and it is envisaged that 3–4 such groups of reviews will now be issued each year.
