Many habitats have been completely destroyed or divided into tiny fragments, others have been transformed through the introduction of new species, or the extinction of native plants and animals, while anthropogenic climate change now threatens to completely redraw the geographic map of life on this planet. The urgent need to understand and prescribe solutions to this complicated and interlinked set of pressing conservation issues has lead to the transformation of the venerable academic dis 606 $aConservation biology 606 $aBiodiversity conservation 606 $aProtected areas 606 $aBiogeography 615 0$aConservation biology. 615 0$aBiodiversity conservation. 615 0$aProtected areas. 615 0$aBiogeography. 676 $a333.95/16 701 $aLadle$b Richard J$0922128 701 $aWhittaker$b Robert J$0275939 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910141137003321 996 $aConservation biogeography$92069244 997 $aUNINA
