Related issues have also emerged, such as human induced landscape change, and successes and failures of the ameliorative actions that followed. The book shows that while diclofenac dominated the attention to vulture ecologies and their futures in South Asia, other comparatively neglected issues such as socio-economic policies and technological developments were and are still vital. In the study of vultures and their rapidly changing ecologies, the main clusters of research methods have included laboratory studies and field techniques, the latter both biological and human socio-cultural and economic/technological"--
