The approach includes methods for the thorough planning necessary to restore, implement, and maintain both structural and functional aspects of natural habitats on previously disturbed sites.

This book is an extended communication to novices and entry and mid-level environmental professionals detailing many of the skills needed to be not only successful in restoring and maintaining habitats, but in navigating the regulatory requirements and the potential financial assistance which comes from governmental and private sources.
