However, this is the first book to thoroughly analyse and explain the interesting and changing scientific research that has been accomplished in South Africa's national parks during the twentieth century. Providing a fascinating and thorough historical narrative based on an extensive range of sources, this text details the evolution of traditional natural history pursuits to modern conservation science in South Africa, covering all research areas of conservation biology and all the national parks around the country. It reveals the interaction between the international context, government, learning institutions and the public that has shaped the present conservation arena. A complex story that will interest and inform not only those involved in conservation science of South Africa, but worldwide.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jane Carruthers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1107191440\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781107191440\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/17\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 554\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.26lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.32h x 6.58w x 1.23d","brand":"Jane Carruthers","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48216673386751,"sku":"9781107191440","price":111.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_50679ad6-6a92-4632-9d58-3e75ca7b4d0e.jpg?v=1771992587","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/national-park-science-jane-carruthers-9781107191440","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
