Consequently, international efforts to assess and maintain biodiversity are rapidly expanding, making it critical that information be collected, coordinated and disseminated effectively. This book reviews how information and efficient information flow can support world priorities in biodiversity. It is based on papers from a workshop organized by CAB INTERNATIONAL with support from the International Union of Biological Sciences, the International Union of Forestry Research Organizations, the World Conservation Union and the United Nations Environment Program.
