Doug Tallamy: "Nature's Best Hope" is the title of University of Delaware professor Doug Tallamy's new book, and the subtitle reads like this: “A New Approach to Conservation That Starts in Your Yard.” In other words, you and I are nature's best hope.

Doug Tallamy's 2007 book, “Bringing Nature Home,” has been, for many of us, a wake-up call into the entire subject of the unbreakable link between native plant species and native wildlife, and now with more than a decade of additional research insights, he goes further in “Nature's Best Hope.”
