Synopsis :

This, the Third Edition, thoroughly revises and updates the earlier editions to reflect current legal perspectives on the conservation of wildlife and biological diversity.|When the first edition of this book was published in 1977â ''to overwhelming critical and popular acclaimâ ''it was the only publication to analyze wildlife law comprehensively as a distinct component of federal environmental law.
