Further, it provides an introduction to human settlement and activity on the islands, including the transition from subsistence to a fishing economy and more recently tourism, all in the context of increasingly restrictive conservation regulations. Importantly, the book also explores the development of the concept and practice of sustainable development across the islands as a framework for future economic development, pursuing an approach that reconciles the needs of the resident population with conservation of this fragile environment. The book is intended for a broad readership, from those engaged in geological and ecological studies, college and university educators and conservation practitioners, to more general visitors to the islands. 410 0$aGeoheritage, Geoparks and Geotourism, Conservation and Management Series,$x2363-765X 606 $aGeology 606 $aEnvironmental management 606 $aTourism 606 $aManagement 606 $aNature conservation 606 $aSustainable development 606 $aConservation biology 606 $aEcology  606 $aGeology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G17002 606 $aEnvironmental Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U17009 606 $aTourism Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/527050 606 $aNature Conservation$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U26008 606 $aSustainable Development$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U34000 606 $aConservation Biology/Ecology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19150 615 0$aGeology. 615 0$aEnvironmental management. 615 0$aTourism. 615 0$aManagement. 615 0$aNature conservation. 615 0$aSustainable development. 615 0$aConservation biology. 615 0$aEcology . 615 14$aGeology. 615 24$aEnvironmental Management. 615 24$aTourism Management. 615 24$aNature Conservation. 615 24$aSustainable Development. 615 24$aConservation Biology/Ecology. 676 $a551 700 $aKelley$b Daniel$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0985815 702 $aPage$b Kevin$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aQuiroga$b Diego$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aSalazar$b Raul$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910337926203321 996 $aIn the Footsteps of Darwin: Geoheritage, Geotourism and Conservation in the Galapagos Islands$92253283 997 $aUNINA
