Reviews
'This book nicely summarizes just how complex the problem of tiger conservation really is ... this book has no competition. The quality of type and text is virtually error-free, the colour figure illustrations and pictures of animals are stunning, and the interweaving of 'boxed' entries actually works to complement the text ... The modern synthesis of conservation biology in terms of science, culture, economics and politics are effectively conveyed in Riding the tiger, and should serve as a clear example of how and why to argue for single species efforts in the face of broad issues in conservation.'Animal Conservation, ‘Nicely illustrated with colour maps and pictures with text that is approachable and understandable by the lay reader.’Bulletin of the British Ecological Society, 'The editors have done a masterful job of ensuring that the biology of tigers lies at the heart of each and every conversation decision. If presentation is everything, this book has no competition ... I think this volume is the closest I know of for truly being a scientific coffee table book!'John L. Gittleman, Animal Conservation, ‘Riding the Tiger is the best 1990s single-species account I have read. Seidensticker, Christie and Jackson are to be commended.
