REWILDING THE WORLD: Dispatches from the conservation revolution

“A thoughtful examination of rewilding and its discontents. . . an important book.”

—The New York Times

*A Library Journal Best Sci-Tech Book of the Year*

If environmental destruction continues at its current rate, a third of all plants and animals could disappear by 2050–along with earth’s life-support ecosystems, which provide food, water, medicine, and natural defenses against climate change.

Now Caroline Fraser offers the first definitive account of a visionary crusade to confront this crisis: rewilding. Breathtaking in scope and ambition, rewilding aims to save species by restoring habitats, reviving migration corridors, and brokering peace between people and predators. A “methodical, lyrical” (Sacramento News & Review) story of scientific discovery and grassroots action, REWILDING THE WORLD offers hope for a richer, wilder future.
