The first popular book on the ground-breaking science behind the restoration of wild nature.Rewilding is a new and progressive approach to conservation, blending radical scientific insights with practical innovations to revive ecological processes, benefiting people as well as nature. Its goal is to restore lost interactions between animals, plants and natural disturbance that are the essence of thriving ecosystems.With its sense of hope and purpose, rewilding is breathing new life into the conservation movement, and enabling a growing number of people - even urban-dwellers - to enjoy thrilling wildlife experiences previously accessible only in remote wilderness reserves. 'De-domesticated' horses galloping across a Dutch 'Serengeti'; beavers creating wetlands in the British countryside; giant tortoises restoring the wildlife of the Mauritian islands; perhaps one day even rhinos roaming the Australian outback - rewilding is full of exciting and inspirational possibilities.

LEGATURA EDITORIALE. Condition: NUOVO. Gli interventi di rewilding si distinguono dalle altre iniziative di difesa della natura poiché hanno come finalità la ricostruzione delle condizioni originarie degli habitat e il ripristino delle funzioni ecosistemiche perdute. L'ambiente naturale gravemente compromesso può infatti essere recuperato attraverso la reintroduzione di animali come lupi, orsi e grandi erbivori, la cui presenza è in grado di modificare il terreno e ripristinare la biodiversità, con effetti a catena su tutta la biosfera. Combinando splendide immagini di storia naturale e infografica, Rewilding spiega come la co-evoluzione di piante e animali abbia plasmato il volto del pianeta nel corso dei millenni e traccia un percorso per il suo recupero che vuole essere radicale ma anche pragmatico, inclusivo e tecnologico. Pagg.224, Rilegato.
