ABOUT THE SERIES

Science and Practice of Ecological Restoration Series Books

Island Press publishes the book series “The Science and Practice of Ecological Restoration” in partnership with the Society for Ecological Restoration. The series has grown to include 28 titles that cover a wide range of topics, from the scientific principles underlying restoration and the philosophical underpinnings of the discipline, to issues and strategies for restoring specific ecosystem types and field-tested solutions for restoration practice. As the name suggests, the series was born of the overriding goal to create an international forum for book-length treatments of key concepts and emerging trends in the science and practice of ecological restoration, and to promote its integration within the conservation sciences.

We are looking for new books to include in the series, and we welcome proposals on relevant topics of interest to restoration professionals, practitioners, and students. Guidelines for submitting proposals can be found here.
