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.
