Africa's
Vanishing Wildlife
Chris Stuart, Tilde Stuart
Arranged according to groups of all
Africa's animals. For each of the animals examined and photographed
(e.g., savanna elephants, black rhinoceros, or Ethiopian wolves),
vital statistics are included along with the number still surviving,
present dangers, and maps that illustrate how their populations
have decreased. Africa has the fastest growing earth human population,
and most of the problems facing its ecosystem are caused by humans:
overpopulation, disease, deforestation, desertification due to overgrazing,
and introduced species.The authors of this book, believe that the
only way to help the vanishing wildlife "is to increase economic
wealth and stability, which will lead to a drop in the birth rate.

Marine
Pollution
Robert Clark
This new edition provides a balanced
account of what wastes are discharged into the sea or get there
accidentally, what happens to them when they get there, the effect
they have on the marine environment, and the threats they present
to human health. As well as being completely updated, case histories
have been replaced by more recent ones, and the whole book has been
given a greater international emphasis. This new edition has a new
chapter to explain techniques for measuring change in the marine
environment, extended further reading, and more emphasis on tropical
seas. It is designed as an introductory text but no particular knowledge
is demanded of the reader; it can be used by engineers, economists,
lawyers, or environmentalists who need to be informed about the
effects of materials that are deliberately or accidentally discharged
into the sea.
