In 2006, Resilience Thinking addressed an essential question: As the natural systems that sustain us are subjected to shock after shock, how much can they take and still deliver the services we need from them? This idea caught the attention of both the scientific community and the general public.In Resilience Practice, authors Brian Walker and David Salt take the notion of resilience one step further, applying resilience thinking to realworld situations and exploring how systems can be managed to promote and sustain resilience.The book begins with an overview and introduction to resilience thinking and then takes the reader through the process of describing systems, assessing their resilience, and intervening as appropriate. Following each chapter is a case study of a different type of socialecological system and how resilience makes a difference to that system in practice. The final chapters explore resilience in other arenas, including on a global scale.Resilience Practice will help people with an interest in the coping capacity of systemsfrom farms and catchments to regions and nationsto better understand how resilience thinking can be put into practice. It offers an easytoread but scientifically robust guide through the realworld application of the concept of resilience and is a must read for anyone concerned with the management of systems at any scale.
