'There are very few insect books of such expansive scope, and this one could be a standard text for years. It will be welcomed by specialists in entomology, biodiversity, mass extinction, evolution and half-a-dozen associated fields. ... it is much more than an expert book for experts; it should appeal to everyone interested in the fast-diminishing biodiversity of our planet. All in all, this is an expensive book that is excellent value.' Nature '... a masterly synthesis of needs and progress within the discipline, ranging over a wide array of topics and illuminated by examples from many parts of the world ... this is a well-produced and significant book assured of a leading place in the record of the scientific and practical development of insect conservation.' T. R. New, La Trobe University 'A notable aspect of this book is its truly global perspective, and the author does well to draw together a huge diversity of examples from ecosystems all over the world ... nicely produced and well illustrated ... I hope that Samway's enthusiastic text will win many converts to the cause of insect conservation.' Environmental Conservation 'Michael Samways gives a very good overview and uses ample and recent examples to demonstrate the importance of insect diversity conservation. the book will be welcomed by the already 'converted' insect conservation researchers and managers. I sincerely hope that it will also be picked up by teachers and students in the wider biological and environmental sciences in order to give insects the place they deserve in conservation biology.' Journal of Insect Conservation 'Samways is a true expert with a comprehensive, even encyclopaedic, knowledge of the emotional literature,and an impressive publication record in insect conservation. All insect conservation scientists should buy this book,...the wealth of science in such short space is impressive.' OryxMore details

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
