Title: A Good Guide to Habitat Restoration, with caveats...
Product review: If somewhat superficial in its discussion of the ecological basis for restoration, and how environmental interactions can and do interact with restoration efforts in unpredictable ways, still this guide is a good addition to the Habitat Restorer's (Restorationists?) toolkit.This book will be useful to you if you are a novice embarking on a new restoration project, or if you have some experience with restoration, but have not worked in a position of leadership.Run, though, and do not walk, as you seek to accompany this guide with detailed ecological knowledge about your area from researchers and restorers at work there. No book can comprehensively offer advice about where you live, in your home place. Only you, and people like yourself, can acquire that sort of expertise.Another useful book for the restorer's library--more explanatory as to right attitude rather than technique--is Gary Snyder's _The Real Work_.
