Transforming Parks and Protected Areas<\/strong><\/em> (Routledge, 2008)<\/span> The protection of natural resources and biodiversity through protected areas is increasingly based on ecological principles. Simultaneously the concept of ecosystem-based management has become broadly accepted and implemented over the last two decades. However, this period has also seen unprecedented rapid global social and ecological change, which has weakened many protection efforts.<\/p>\n These changes have created an awareness of opportunities for innovative approaches to managing protected areas and of the need to integrate social and economic concerns with ecological elements in protected areas and parks management.<\/p>\n A rare collection of articles that fuses academic theory, critique of practice and practical knowledge,\u00a0Transforming Parks and Protected Areas<\/em>\u00a0analyzes and critiques these theories, practices, and philosophies, looking in-detail at the emerging issues in the design and operation of parks and protected areas. Addressing critical dynamics and current practices in parks and protected areas management, the excellent volume goes well beyond simple managerial solutions and descriptions of standard practice.<\/p>\n With contributions from leading academics and practitioners, this book will be of value to all those working within ecology, natural resources, conservation and parks management as well as students and academics across the environmental sciences and land use management.<\/p>\n (Description Source: Routledge<\/a>) Kevin Hanna <\/strong>is an associate professor of Earth, Environmental and Geographic Sciences at the University of British Columbia (Okanagan). His research broadly centers on integrated approaches to natural resources management, operational support for natural resources development, environmental impact assessment, and energy resources and systems. A key part of his research is working with Indigenous organizations to help outline data\/information management approaches and tools, define best practices for impact assessment, and develop case studies to help communities design new methods for conducting impact assessments. His current work focuses on the Canadian west, and north and Arctic.<\/p>\n http:\/\/tinyurl.com\/yy33cd26<\/a><\/p>\n From the Publisher – Routledge<\/a><\/span> Paper ISBN: 9780415542647<\/span> The University of British Columbia Okanagan Classroom Artwork Project<\/em> aims to display academically inspiring artwork in classrooms and other teaching areas of the university.<\/span><\/p>\n Artwork displayed as part of this project \u2013 including the covers of books and journals containing work written or edited by UBCO scholars and researchers \u2013 is intended to help enliven university teaching spaces, educate classroom users about the connections between research and teaching, and introduce members of the broader public to some of the research and scholarship carried out at UBCO.<\/span><\/p>\n
