974 pages in two volumes. "The Kamloops and its proceedings are an important step in communicating the results of the recent, original and innovative work to managers, scientists, educators, naturalists, and the general public. There are many sobering signs of how desperate the situation has become: far more extensive and complicated endangered species lists; a growing number of ecosystems at risk; an increasing understanding of how fragile some ecosystems are; and accelerated rates of habitat loss and fragmentation. On the bright side, there is the tremendous energy that has in recent years been put forward toward public education, and documenting classifying, researching, and conserving species at risk. These papers are a valuable glimpse into that effort." - from Preface. Clean, tight and unmarked with light external wear. Nice copy. Book
