• ContributorsPrefaceAcknowledgementsPart I: Foundation1. The Misunderstanding of Habitat2. Exploration and Critique of Habitat and Habitat Quality3. Demographic Consequences of Habitat4. Managing Habitats in a Changing WorldPart II: Habitats in Peril5. Habitat Loss and Degradation: Understanding Anthropogenic Stressors and Their Impacts on Individuals, Populations and Communitie6. Population Genetics and Wildlife Habitat7. Habitat Fragmentation and Corridors8. The Impact of Invasive Species on Wildlife HabitatPart III: Research and Conservation9. Thoughts on Models and Prediction10. Manage Habitat Monitor Species11. The Effects of Disturbance and Succession on Wildlife Habitat and Animal Communities12. Wildlife Habitat Restoration13. Synthesis for Advancing Useful Knowledge of Habitat: Unifying Themes or Many Directions?

A timely volume... A useful book for those interested in natural resources. Choice ...an excellent contribution to the understanding of what habitat is and how to conserve it. Conservation Biology In this very worthwhile book, the editors and chapter authors have accomplished the important task of setting forth a path to guide habitat management and conservation. Great Plains Research The editors of this volume accomplished their goal of reaching a broad audience and providing this audience with an understanding of the factors affecting wildlife and their habitats. The book will be most useful for wildlife students, but will also have immense utility for managers seeking to understand and address emerging habitat threats, and for researchers aiming to broaden their perspectives on the variety of factors influencing habitat. Landscape Ecologist Taken as a whole, this collection of chapters will provide a benchmark for understanding how we are to understand the global consequences of human consumption.
