Acknowledgements
Synthesizing knowledge in this volume from different disciplines and sectors about
biodiversity, health and climate change inter-relationships has been a productive
and fruitful collaboration of all contributing authors. The transdisciplinary approach
for this book brought together 64 experts from the natural and social sciences as
well as from policy and planning representing 15 countries. Working on this volume
has been an inspiring, enriching and rewarding journey for us as editors.
We are deeply grateful to all authors who contributed to the chapters within this
volume. This book would not have been possible without the joint expertise and
insights into the various interconnected issues on the topic of biodiversity and health
in the face of climate change. We appreciate the stimulating discussion process and
hope this dialogue will continue. We would also like to extend our gratitude to all
practitioners and policy advisors who have contributed their expertise to the science
and case studies in this volume, demonstrating the possibilities for bringing together
the issues of biodiversity, health and climate change. Their efforts and active collaboration made this synthesis possible.
We are sincerely thankful to the following peer reviewers who provided valuable, constructive comments on earlier versions of the chapters in this book:
Agnieszka Olszewska-Guizzo, Amber Pearson, Anja Byg, Aurora Torres, Benjamin
Lee, Caroline Hägerhäll, Chantal van Ham, Christopher Coutts, Cynthia Skelhorn,
Daniel Cox, David Eichenberg, Delphine Thizy, Elaine Fuertes, Emma Coombes,
Emma White, Freddie Lymeus, Hans Keune, Jack Benton, Jana Verboom, Jenny
Veitch, Jill Fisher, Kalevi Korpela, Karen Keenleyside, Kathryn Rossiter, Laura
B. Cole, Manuel Wolff, Martin Dallimer, Martin Pfeffer, Mike Hardman, Nadja
Kabisch, Nick Osborne, Paul Heintzman, Peter Cochrane, Pippin Anderson, Rachel
McInnes, Robert Ryan, Ruth Hunter, Sjerp de Vries, Sonja Knapp, Sophus zu
Ermgassen, Stephanie Thomas, Stephen Heiland, Suneetha Subramanian, Terry
Hartig and Thomas Classen.
We are especially grateful to Margaret Deignan from the Springer publishing
team and to our Springer project coordinator, Karthika Menon, for their helpful
guidance.
