Summary Annotation * Major and comprehensive new volume on countryside planning and management * Edited and with contributions by the leading authorities in the field * Essential reading on the future of the countryside for all professionals, organizations, teachers and students The "drivers" of countryside management and conservation are increasingly international and European. They aim to provide comprehensive new frameworks for the whole countryside, and community-driven planning and protection. This book examines the impact and effectiveness of these approaches, their integration and practical value, drawing on a range of highly relevant case studies. The result is a volume that provides a fully up-to-date review and analysis of the pressures on the countryside, the policies for the future, and the keys to successful implementation.
