- African nature
Annotation
This book explores a joint African/Western approach to conservation with the goal of returning control to the African nations. It's a no-holds-barred attack on old-style conservation in Africa- provocative, fascinating and dead-on. The authors, associated with the World Wildlife Fund, explode the romantic fallacy of an untouched continent where animals roam freely in sanctuaries. The relationship of wildlife - and the people who share the continent with them - is central to the future of conservation
