SUMMARY OF THE REVIEWS of the book. This is the first time that the issues of environment and conservation are analyzed on the basis of modern fundamental concepts of biology and ecology, including the fundamental concepts of levels of life systems, and other fundamental concepts. The work examines the problems arising from the deterioration of the environment and covers the issues of conservation and biodiversity protection at the molecular-genetic, the ontogenetic, the species-population and the ecosystem levels. The book offers suggestions concerning changes in practice in agriculture, industry, recreation etc. – in all sectors of society life and functioning. The deterioration of the environment has become one of the most serious problems of the twentieth century. The structure of the book is completely innovative, which helps provide an in-depth and multi-faceted analysis. There are 12 chapters in this book: (1) the dangerous extent of human impact on the biosphere; (2) molecular genetic level; (3) problems at the ontogenetic level; (4) problems at the species-population level; (5) problems at the ecosystem level; (6) economic problems; (7) organizational and legal problems of the protection of living nature; (8) problems of prognostication; (9) protection of living nature and its connection with other global problems; (10) need for ecologization of society's activities; (11) ways of preserving living nature; and (12) scientific foundations and theory of living nature protection within the system of biological science. Some authors of the reviews called the book a Russian "Silent Spring". However, the book is more than that, as it provides some positive solutions. The book analyses the problems of conservation and suggests ways of solving them.

Book (Hardcover ) The deterioration of the environment has become one of the most serious problems of the 20th - 21st centuries. We are faced with increasing global problems - hunger and desertification, depletion of natural resources and deficiency of energy, pollution and man-triggered changes of climate. Presenting many new facts and examples from environmental studies in East and West, part I analyzes the problems of conservation at all main levels of life: the molecular-genetic, the ontogenetic, the species-population, and the ecosystem level. After an appraisal of present conditions, the authors show which changes in the different sectors of society (including agriculture, industry, recreation, etc.) are necessary to solve our environmental problems.
