Rewilding: The Radical New Science of Ecological Recovery

Co-authored with Paul Jepson

MIT Press / Icon Books

Rewilding is the most ambitious and inspiring conservation movement of our time. This book provides a comprehensive, science-based exploration of what rewilding is, why it matters, and how it can be achieved at scale.

From the reintroduction of keystone species to the restoration of natural processes across entire landscapes, this book argues that rewilding offers our best chance of reversing the biodiversity crisis while creating resilient ecosystems that benefit both nature and people.

"A hugely useful and fascinating resume of what has been achieved and what still needs to be done... a book of great influence."

"Compelling."
