Focuses on tropical East Asia, where there are no competing books dealing with conservation of freshwater animals and their habitats.
Takes a case-study based approach emphasizing the multiple, interacting threats facing freshwater animals, and draws attention to the conservation challenges that will be faced in mitigating them.
Based on extensive experience in the region, the author points draws attention to the analogous threats to freshwater animals and human livelihoods in tropical East Asia, and demonstrates that unsustainable use of rivers and lakes by some stakeholders is detrimental both to other humans and aquatic biodiversity.
