Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Near Fine. Very crisp, clean and bright inside a lightly bumped DJ. The rationale for this work covering nearly 250 major sites for conservation of plant diversity is concern about rapid global loss and degradation of natural ecosystems. By highlighting areas of prime botanical importance, it is hoped that their conservation will be ensured by an adequate commitment of resources.

WWF and IUCN hope that this global assessment will be followed by further local assessments, so that the vital task of conservation of plant diversity can be well integrated into national and regional conservation and development strategies.…
