This book provides an authoritative and timely practical guide to genetic management of fragmented populations, with critically important practical implications in conservation biology. It seeks to enable a paradigm shift in the genetic management of small isolated population fragments by encouraging genetic rescues.

One of the greatest unmet issues in conservation biology is the genetic management of fragmented populations of numerous animal and plant species. Many populations are going extinct unnecessarily for genetic reasons so there is now urgent need for an authoritative textbook on the rational genetic management of fragmented populations.
