Title: Watching, from the edge of extinction
First published: 1999
Description: In this book, Beverly and Stephen Stearns tell the stories of people who have worked directly with disappearing species in Europe, Africa, North America, and Oceania. They are stories of passion and commitment, of competence and selflessness. They are also stories that alarm, for even as unheralded heroes are working to reverse what often seems to be a species' inevitable march toward extinction, incompetent or self-interested parties are often working against them.
Subjects: Case studies, Extinction (Biology), Nature conservation, Endangered species, NATURE
