Review Quotes:
"Can nature be protected without harming local people? Just Conservation argues that it must, and shows how it can be done. Eloquently and simply, Adrian Martin makes a powerful case for placing the issue of social justice at the heart of biodiversity conservation." - Professor Bill Adams, University of Cambridge
"Adrian Martin sees the solution to this loss of biodiversity and ecosystem endangerment from a rather different perspective to the usual - that of social justice, especially for the local people... There is much that should concern us all in this book." David W. H. Walton, in the British Ecological Society Bulletin (June 2018)
