This series is dedicated to serving the growing community of
scholars and practitioners concerned with the principles and
applications of environ mental management. Each volume is a
thorough treatment of a specific topic of importance for proper
management practices. A fundamental objective of these books is to
help the reader discern and implement man's stewardship of our
environment and the world's renewable re sources. For we must
strive to understand the relationship between man and nature, act
to bring harmony to it, and nurture an environment that is both
stable and productive. These objectives have often eluded us
because the pursuit of other individual and societal goals has
diverted us from a course of living in balance with the
environment. At times, therefore, the environmental manager may
have to exert restrictive control, which is usually best applied to
man, not nature. Attempts to alter or harness nature have often
failed or backfired, as exemplified by the results of imprudent use
of herbicides, fertilizers, water, and other agents. Each book in
this series will shed light on the fundamental and applied aspects
of environmental management. It is hoped that each will help solve
a practical and serious environmental problem."
