Reviews
'With recent concerns about whale survival, this book could enhance support for establishing appropriate reserves. Recommended' -D. Bardack, Choice. 'Erich Hoyt's handbook is an admirable, timely, and highly welcome contribution to these efforts. This will no doubt become the 'bible' of cetacean habitat conservation efforts.' -Michael Stachowitsch, Marine Ecology 'I found this book an incredibly rich resource for a better understanding of the world's MPAs and cetacean protection. It is very well illustrated, holds a wealth of information on MPAs and environmental governance in general and, apart from the content, is written in a style that makes complex information easily accessible. I am certain that on many future occasions I will take this book in my hands again as it serves as a well-structured compendium for marine mammal and habitat protection.' -Nikolas Sellheim, Faculty of Law, University of Lapland, 'With recent concerns about whale survival, this book could enhance support for establishing appropriate reserves.
