Fighting for survival : insecurity, people and the environment in the Horn of Africa
    Spooner, Bryan | Walsh, Nigel

A combination of violence and drought has had a pervasive and highly damaging effect on the societies and production systems of this region. This powerful document presents a wide range of social, economic, ecological and historical information and most importantly an expert analysis of the interlinkages. Featuring an impressive array of figures, maps and other data, the book also provides a valuable perspective by placing local influences and forces in a global context. The study presents a changing picture of adaptation, flexibility, and response between the different elements and sets the stage for a frank discussion of likely future trends.
Swallowtail butterflies : an action plan for their conservation
    Collins, N. Mark | New, T. R.

This is the first insect Action Plan prepared by the IUCN Species Survival Commission, and was chosen because swallowtail butterflies are perhaps the most charismatic to non-entomologists. Some are the largest butterflies which exist, and the “birdwings” in particular have long excited wonder and comment among naturalists of all persuasions.

Out of a total of 573 species, 170 are considered to need conservation action. This Action Plan exemplifies the wide-ranging conservation needs of swallowtails by selecting a geographically broad suite of faunas and individual taxa for priority conservation action. Endangering processes are accelerating alarmingly in most of the regions listed for attention. The plan covers 34 regions throughout the world, considering within each region the conservation status of particular species, action needed, and how projects could be undertaken, together with an indication of costs involved.

It explains how the oceans work and vividly presents the myriad variety of underwater life forms and habitats.
