South Africa is renowned for its wildlife and environmental
conservation in iconic national parks such as the Kruger, one of
the world's first formal protected areas. However, this is the
first book to thoroughly analyse and explain the interesting and
changing scientific research that has been accomplished in South
Africa's national parks during the twentieth century. Providing a
fascinating and thorough historical narrative based on an extensive
range of sources, this text details the evolution of traditional
natural history pursuits to modern conservation science in South
Africa, covering all research areas of conservation biology and all
the national parks around the country. It reveals the interaction
between the international context, government, learning
institutions and the public that has shaped the present
conservation arena. A complex story that will interest and inform
not only those involved in conservation science of South Africa,
but worldwide.
