Recenzje

Biologists often focus exclusively on species protection, for Hilborn sustainable development is about reaching a compromise between that and our need to eat...Ocean Recovery is a thought-provoking read that made me re-think some of my own preconceptions. Any book that does that is worth your time. The Inquisitive Biologist
