Foreword -- 1. The Red-legged Partridge: A Historical Overview on Distribution, Status, Research and Hunting -- 2. Advances in Research on Ecophysiology and Evolutionary Ecology: the Red-legged Partridge as a Study Model -- 3. Habitat Use and Selection: Is Habitat Management the Key to Restore Red-legged Partridge Populations? -- 4. Habitat Use and Selection: Is Habitat Management the Key to Restore Red-legged Partridge Populations? -- 5. The Introduced Red-legged Partridge in Britain: Management and Challenges for the Future -- 6. Molecular DNA studies in the Red-legged Partridge: from population genetics and phylogeography to the risk of anthropogenic hybridization -- 7. Enough Reared Red-legs for Today, but Fewer Wild Ones for Tomorrow? The Dilemma of Gamebird Rearing and Releasing -- 8. Ecotoxicology relevant to the Red-legged Partridge and other Galliformes -- 9. Health Monitoring and Disease Control in Red-legged Partridges -- 10. Red-legged Partridge Monitoring and Population Trends -- 11. Social and Economic Aspects of Red-legged Partridge Hunting and Management in Spain -- 12. Epilogue: Would the Red-legged Partridge has a future?.

There has been a recent upsurge of red-legged partridge research in most countries where the species is distributed, but no comprehensive review of that fresh and relevant multidisciplinary and international knowledge is available. In fact, this is probably the first scientific book on this important species, apart from Dick Potts' excellent works on British-introduced population, or ONCFS's (Office Nationale de la Chasse et le Faune Sauvage, France) older technical reports. This is in strong contrast with a plethora of literature in hunting magazines or non-academic books, not often precise, realistic, or well informed. Thus, the book fills a great bibliography gap that could have important social impact. The common thread of the book is the prominent role a species like this may play for research, from basic physiological or ecological knowledge to socio-economics of hunting and the rural world. The general framework of the book [I1] is the important role that hunting and game management may play in both rural economies and biodiversity conservation, with the partridge as flag species, and also in identifying the "dark drift" that industrial, incorrectly deployed management, or hunting vision may have on both sustainability of resources and nature conservation at large. The final aim of the book is identifying the best future scenario, both for partridge hunters and managers as well as the general public.
