Aimed at Masters, and PhD students, teachers, researchers and natural resource managers, this book explores the interface between restoration ecology and ecological restoration. It covers both the ecological concepts involved in restoration ecology and their practical applications. It is written by an excellent group of ecologists from centres across Europe with a strong reputation for restoration ecology. It is the only textbook around aimed specifically at advanced undergraduate courses and postgraduate study programmes.
