Disentangling the facts from the hype, this 'Domesday book' of the
British and Irish countryside offers a definitive and up-to-date
survey of the state of our wildlife today. Norman Maclean, editor
of the bestselling Silent Summer, examines the latest findings of
Britain and Ireland's top wildlife experts and interprets them for
a wider audience. Each chapter provides reliable estimates of
animal populations, showing which species are thriving and which
are in decline. The book also considers the effects of climate
change on our wildlife and how human population growth is
influencing its development. Beautifully illustrated with colour
plates and wood engravings throughout, this accessible and timely
study reveals just how rapidly our countryside and its wildlife are
changing, why we should be concerned, and what we can do about it.
