The

and discussions, editorials, book reviews, comments and notes,
and reader feedback. Conservation and Society is of interest
to academics, researchers, teachers, naturalists, policy makers,
planners, resource managers and media professionals. It aims
to serve as a bridge between conservation practitioners from
a wide array of disciplines and therefore seeks to disseminate
work presented in an integrative and simple manner that is
accessible to individuals from disciplines ranging from the
natural and social sciences to the humanities. The journal
accepts articles addressing conservation issues in developing
countries around the world. |

on behalf of an informal alliance of natural and social scientists
