<br/><br/>Hiromi Yamashita is a professor at the Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University (APU), Japan, visiting associate professor at Nagoya University Graduate School of Environmental Sciences, Japan, visiting associate professor, University of Cambridge, UK, and advisory board member for the Ramsar Regional Centre-East Asia. 
<br/><br/> Based on a four-year sociological study across three different cultural settings - England, Japan and Malaysia - the book investigates how citizens perceive the existing environment; how they discuss the risks and benefits of restoration projects; how perceptions change over time; and how governmental and non-governmental organisations work with the various community perceptions on the ground. By comparing and contrasting the results from these three countries, the book offers guidance for future conservation and restoration activities, with a specific view to working with local citizens to avoid conflict and obtain long-term investment.
