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).
