Hardcover. Zustand: Good. This book in two volumes is a collection of papers which depict fairly well the present status of both ecological and economic aspects of biodiversity. It constitutes in fact the successful culmination of the first efforts initiated by the ecological economics and environmental planning division of TBGRI in biodiversity research especially related to conservation and economic evaluation. The present volume meets the need for a comprehensive basic book on biodiversity which gives equal emphasis to the ecological and economic aspects of biodiversity Volume I of the book is thus devoted to the scientific and ecological aspects of biodiversity providing an indepth exposure in both theoretical and applied areas of biodiversity such as Conservation of biodiversity concepts approach and strategy. Biodiversity monitoring and case studies. Biodiversity and conservation of medicinal plants. Technology for conservation of biodiversity. Ecosystem components and biodiversity conservation strategies. Volume two deals with the economics and economic evaluation of biodiversity. The papers in this volume examine the evolution of the economics of biodiversity in particular and ecological economics in general. It also provides a disciplinary discussion of the art and science of the economic evaluation of biodiversity vividly presenting the perception advocacies and ramifications of developed and developing countries. The various papers in volume 2 of the book conceptually integrate the entire gamut of ecological and economic theories and methodologies so far evolved and thereby authenticate a fairly complete status of the state of the art of economic evaluation methods applied for evaluation of biodiversity. Presented in an evolutionary and lucid conceptual framework the papers are cauterized under the following heads Economic evaluation of biodiversity. Policy framework for conservation and evaluation of biodiversity. Peoples participation in conserving biodiversity. Biodiversity conservation for sustainable development. Ecological economics and evaluation of biodiversity. Thus this time publication provides a unique opportunity for students researchers development decision makers and practitioners to obtain a synthesized account of ecological and economic perceptions (and skill for sustainable development decision making of) biodiversity and its valuation. One of the most useful functions of this work apart from the fact that it could serve as a development decision making aid is that it is one of the very few books which will help economists understand the basic ecological principles which govern the decline and sustenance of biodiversity and will familiarize ecologists with the basic principles and theories which are pivotal in the process of determining the economic value of biodiversity. 650 pp.
