 “Peregrine Falcon populations - status and perspectives in the 21st century”


"Peregrine Falcon populations - status and perspectives in the 21st century” is the most up-to date compendium on the status and conservation of Peregrine Falcons in Europe. This book is the biggest collection of papers related to Peregrine studies in Europe.

The book is based on papers presented at the 2nd International Peregrine Conference Poland 2007, held from19-23 September 2007 in Piotrowo near Poznań, Poland.

For the moment we have papers on Peregrine populations in Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Bulgaria, Romania, Croatia, Russia (European and Asiatic part), Ukraine, Belarus, Armenia, Sweden, Finland, Norway, Denmark, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Austria, United Kingdom.

In addition to European presentations it also includes papers from countries in other continents - United States, Australia, South Africa, Israel, Malaysia, India, Argentina.

Furthermore, this book also includes papers on Saker Falcons, comparing the species with the Peregrine and studies from their central European stronghold - Hungary, Czech Republic, Slovakia.

A short prefaces were kindly provided by Prof. Ian Newton, Prof. Tom J. Cade and Prof. Clayton M. White.

Prof. Ian Newton: "This book represents another significant milestone in the history of Peregrine studies, adding to our knowledge of the species and its recovery. ... The current volume will prove of value to all Peregrine researchers, whether they are professional biologists, research students, or other enthusiasts, and a source of inspiration to others yet to come."

Prof. Tom J. Cade: "I am very impressed by the quality of the reports assembled.  The book will be a major contribution to the scientific literature on the Peregrine."

Prof. Clayton M. White: "The new information in this current volume is much awaited by Peregrines addicts and will be appreciated by falcon enthusiasts of younger generations ."

Almost 60 papers, ca. 600 pages, almost 300 colour figures, hardcover with book-jacket.

The book edited by Janusz Sielicki and Tadeusz Mizera.
