Abstract
Population viability analysis (PVA) historically has been used to estimate the probability that a population will become extinct within a given time period. More recently, PVA has been used to evaluate alternative management strategies. Some might even say PVA gave rise to conservation biology. Nevertheless, PVA has been heavily criticized. This is the second book to present a synthesis and address those concerns. It does so extremely well.
