In
October 2005, over 1,200 people from fifty nations gathered in Anchorage, Alaska
to participate in the 8th World Wilderness Congress. The 8WWC built upon the
rich tradition of setting practical conservation objectives, as established by
each of the previous seven Congresses. Wilderness, Wildlands and People reveals
the major events of the 8WWC, as presented by scientists, Native people,
politicians, corporate leaders, artists, educators, and many others. The
compilation of plenary proceedings includes a forward by Vance G. Martin, an
afterward by Cyril F. Kormos, thirty-four essays by presenters in the plenary
session, a list of major accomplishments and resolutions as well as photographs
from the Congress and selected poems.
