How do we define baseline states for biodiversity conservation strategies? How are reference states mobilized in a concrete way through case studies?\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eToday, biodiversity conservation faces a dilemma that this book sheds light on: return to states less modified by humans than today but in a world that has changed significantly; or, let the nature of tomorrow express itself where it still can but without a road map.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLaurent Godet\u003c\/b\u003e is a CNRS researcher at Nantes University, France.
