"Martin and Finch have succeeded in their aims. This is a welcome addition to my bookshelf. It will be useful to university instructors, to environmental activists, to policy analysts, as well as to researchers and the land management community for which it is intended. The multiple author approach has provided the seasoning of ideas that the editors desired. The scholarship is high-quality throughout. . . . Buy the book and use it. Appreciate the extremedifficulty faced quite forthrightly and courageously by the land managers in the trenches. They must act, for lack of manipulation is a management action as much as is extensive manipulation. This volume is a lantern they can use to illuminate some of the poorly marked guideposts for theirdecision-making."--The Condor"Ecology and Management of Neotropical Migratory Birds provides the best review yet of the scientific issues surrounding migrants."--Science"The 17 chapters of this book provide a detailed examination of ecology and management of neotropical migratory birds. . .Ornithologists and conservation biologists will be interested in this book. Recommended." --Wildlife Activist"This volume seeks to summarize an aspect of our knowledge of birds that largely breed in temperate North America and migrate into Latin America. . . .The editors and most of the authors did an excellent job, serving well those in conservation biology. . . .I do enthusiastically recommend this volume to anyone interested in the ecology and management of landbirds. . .A good source of current knowledge of trends of landbird populations and some potential causesof these changes. . .A good foundation for further work."--Ecology"Overall, this book is very satisfying, with much information presented in a very readable and assessable manner."--The Prairie Naturalist
