The Centre for Conservation Biology presently have two books for sale,
Conservation Through Sustainable Use of Wildlife, and Conservation Outside
Nature Reserves.

Conservation Outside Nature Reserves is the result of a conference held in
early 1996.The contributions examine economic incentives to landholders,
stakeholder empowerment, government policies, legislative and planning
initiatives and the on-ground ecological aspects of maintaining viable
ecosystems. All chapters have been peer reviewed. Most of the findings and
proposals in the book are set in an Australian context but are relevant to a
wider audience because the questions and solutions are applicable anywhere.
It is essential reading for those seeking to tackle the problems in off-reserve
conservation, whether on the land, in government policy or in conservation
research

Conservation Through Sustainable Use of Wildlife is the result of a conference
held in 1994 which drew together a wide range of people, ideas and examples of
the practicalities of this issue in a modern world.  The outcomes of the
workshops and plenary sessions of the conference are another feature of the
book. All science-based chapters have been peer reviewed. The book is rich with
examples from Australia and New Zealand but the principles are universal. It is
essential reading for all those charged with the responsibility of managing
wildlife, restoring degraded ecosystems and implementing the principles of
ecologically sustainable development.
