Landscape Restoration Handbook, Second Edition
Editorial Reviews
Review
…concise and valuable as a basic reference source.
--E-STREAMS, Vol. 3, No. 4
The Landscape Restoration Handbook provides a summary of information not now available in a single volume. This is a useful reference work directed at an audience of both professionals and nonprofessionals...
The authors are to be commended for putting considerable ecosystem restoration information together in one volume. Landscape managers will find this a welcome addition to their bookshelves.

[Review quote added 12/08/99]
...a fabulous resource for applied ecologists, restorationists, and landscape architects, would also be an excellent introduction and source book on restoration ecology for college students...The authors are well-reputed restorationists, conservation biologists, and ecosystem geographers. They draw their principles and theories from community and landscape ecology as well as conservation biology.-J. Silbernagel, Washington State University
