I received a book copy of poor print quality. I'll use the same phrase from another reviewer "The very first time I opened the book the pages started to fall out." The authors use unusual words from technical books of this area. This makes reading difficult for people who are not native English speakers. See the comment of another reviewer, "If Mr. Bolen spent more time editing his material is grammar and comprehension rather than using 'pretty' words, this would be a much better text." The vast majority of examples and theoretical focus are restricted to USA situations. I do not recommend the book to students of other nationalities who wish to know the theme "wildlife management" as a whole.
