Synopsis

This book addresses the broader context of invasive and exotic species, in terms of the perceived threats and environmental concerns which surround alien species and ecological invasions. It considers reactions and solutions in terms of environmental and climate change, sociology and ethics, globalization and politics, and argues that many decisions are based on values and perceptions rather than objective science.
