Written in the light of international thinking on environment management, this third edition tackles the hottest debates of recent years - deer management, the post-Brexit future of farming, land reform, rewilding v. repeopling, windfarms and conflicts between game sport and conservation. Underlying all the practical and policy choices are intriguing ethical and philosophical considerations which the book addresses head on, including debates about the goals of conservation in a pervasively humanised world. This is an ideal text for those studying Scotland's environment at an undergraduate and graduate level, as well as for those already involved in - or interested in - managing land and nature in Scotland. Throughout, it is well illustrated with photographs and specially prepared maps and diagrams.
