Book Description
Along the way, we meet a cast of characters from across society, including farmers, rewilders and everyone in between. It becomes clear that coexistence is as much about sharing landscapes with each other as it is about sharing them with wildlife. The first book to tackle this subject in detail, based on more than 50 interviews in/from seven countries,
Coexistence will be of relevance to anyone with an interest in the future of nature, farming and the countryside. Personal, detailed, unflinching and engaging, it will add a great deal to this rapidly evolving debate.Editorial Reviews
Review
Living with Lynx combines rich conversations with nuggets of wisdom, and invites readers to reconsider their assumptions and engage openly with the idea of reintroducing large carnivores. Jonny Hanson writes with insight and compassion… No matter what side you were originally leaning towards, this book will inspire you to challenge your own preconceptions in the best possible ways.
The book is bristling with ideas, observations, opinions and advice, and this is done with a certain flair… well worth buying for its breath and readability.
…the author covers important ground, from a highly informed perspective…
This is a thought-provoking book… Part memoir, part travelogue, it is also a philosophical investigation of the interactions between large carnivores and people.
Nuffield scholar Jonny Hanson has achieved the best analysis I have read on reintroductions in a genuinely unbiased way… Dr Hanson has established himself as an authoritative voice in Nature conservation.
