Abstract

In the opening chapters of this book, we observed that the issue of pest management is not only about species ecology and management technologies. It is a complex, persistent and sometimes wicked public issue that requires human action. In this final chapter we revisit the role that narrative plays in understanding the human dimensions that are influential in shaping collective responses to invasive species management.
