The Dnipro River is Europe’s second largest, and for centuries has been vital to the history, culture and economy of Ukraine and to a major part of Eastern Europe.

Preserving the Dnipro describes the importance of the Dnipro and highlights the steps taken by Ukrainian and Canadian scientists to overcome the river’s environmental misfortunes and preserve its unique biodiversity, and presents an approach for the sustainable management that blends both the spiritual and natural concerns. It digs into the true meaning of sustainable research use as the harmonious coexistence of nature and society.

Liberally illustrated, the book presents a succinct yet powerful and comprehensive message that caring for our planet and achieving the objectives of sustainable development cannot be accomplished without a renaissance of “spirituality” and a dedication to living in true harmony with nature.
