Written by professionals involved in in situ conservation and restoration projects internationally, this is a critical assessment of the contribution of zoos to species conservation through evidence amassed from a wide range of sources. The first part outlines the biodiversity context within which zoos should operate, introducing the origins and global spread of zoos and exploring animal collection composition. The second part focuses on the basic elements of keeping viable captive animal populations. It considers the consequences of captivity on animals, the genetics of captive populations and the performance of zoos in captive breeding. The final part examines ways in which zoos can make a significant difference to conservation now and in the future. Bridging the gap between pure science and applied conservation, this is an ideal resource for both conservation biologists and zoo professionals. 410 0$aEcology, biodiversity, and conservation. 606 $aZoos$xPhilosophy 606 $aAnimal diversity conservation 606 $aCaptive wild animals$xBreeding 615 0$aZoos$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aAnimal diversity conservation. 615 0$aCaptive wild animals$xBreeding. 676 $a333.95/416 686 $aNAT011000$2bisacsh 700 $aFa$b John E.$01536508 702 $aFunk$b Stephan M. 702 $aO'Connell$b Donnamarie 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910781989403321 996 $aZoo conservation biology$93785326 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03600nam 2200649 a 450 001 9910792218003321 005 20230828205625.0 010 $a0-19-774338-2 010 $a0-19-534140-6 010 $a1-280-84537-6 010 $a1-4294-5920-4 010 $a0-19-803991-3 035 $a(CKB)2560000000301355 035 $a(EBL)430936 035 $a(OCoLC)609831611 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000246255 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11227041 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000246255 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10180436 035 $a(PQKB)10784789 035 $a(StDuBDS)EDZ0000082812 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL430936 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10177864 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL84537 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC430936 035 $a(EXLCZ)992560000000301355 100 $a20060111d2006 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aSingle by chance, mothers by choice$b[electronic resource] $ehow women are choosing parenthood without marriage and creating the new American family /$fRosanna Hertz 210 $aNew York $cOxford University Press$d2006 215 $a1 online resource (294 p.) 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 $a0-19-517990-0 311 $a0-19-994411-3 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references (p.

In Single By Chance, Mothers By Choice, Rosanna Hertz offers the first full-scale account of this fast-growing phenomenon, revealing why these middle class women took this unorthodox path and how they have managed to make single parenthood work for them. Hertz interviewed 65 women--ranging from physicians and financial analysts to social workers, teachers, and secretaries--women who speak candidly about how they manage their lives and families as single mothers.
