Wetlands are the most important, most misunderstood, and most threatened biotic communities on earth. This is a book about wetlands: it describes why they are valuable, and what our laws do and fail to do to protect them. It is an unusual book because it addresses two overlapping audiences with different levels of need for wetland information. This book has been prepared for environmental and conservation groups, concerned citizens, and elected officials and decision makers in all levels of government who often decide the fate of wetlands.
