The salmon’s annual return is a place-defining event in the Pacific Northwest, with immense ecological, economic, and social significance. However, despite massive spending, efforts to significantly alter the endangered status of salmon have failed. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eSalmon, People, and Place\u003c\/em\u003e, acclaimed fisheries biologist Jim Lichatowich eloquently exposes the misconceptions underlying salmon management and recovery programs that have fuelled the catastrophic decline in Northwest salmon populations for more than a century. These programmes will continue to fail, he suggests, so long as they regard salmon as products and ignore their essential relationship with their habitat. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut Lichatowich offers hope. In \u003cem\u003eSalmon, People, and Place\u003c\/em\u003e he presents a concrete plan for salmon recovery, one based on the myriad lessons learned from past mistakes. What is needed to successfully restore salmon, Lichatowich states, is an acute commitment to healing the relationships among salmon, people, and place. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA significant contribution to the literature on Pacific salmon, \u003cem\u003eSalmon, People, and Place: A Biologist’s Search for Salmon Recovery\u003c\/em\u003e is an essential read for anyone concerned about the fate of this Pacific Northwest icon.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Oregon State University Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52734461837592,"sku":"9780870717246","price":18.69,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/salmon-people-and-place-a-biologists-search-for-salmon-recovery-paperback-softback-9780870717246","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
