Recenzii
"Books can inform and inspire. Both outcomes were skillfully achieved by John Schoen, long-time member of the Alaska Chapter of The Wildlife Society, in his recently released Tongass Odyssey [...] Tongass Odyssey can serve as a historic context for ecologists and wildlife biologists working in contemporary Southeast Alaska, where vigorous societal debate continues over concerns that logging, mining, and associated road building can impact future potential of nature tourism, fishing, and hunting, all reliant on productive habitats. Its 338 pages include appendices on geographic facts, historic benchmarks, technical terms, and end notes. It is also an instructive example to scientists on how to walk the fine line between professional and personal advocacy in the policy arena, where trial and error without a mentor can be detrimental to scientific reputations and agency careers."
