Synopsis

Written by biologists for an interdisciplinary readership, including biologists, geologists, geographers and environmental scientists, this book emphasizes both the ecological concepts and the historical evolutionary factors that contribute to our understanding of patterns of life today and in the past. For the latest edition the whole text has been extensively revised and the final chapter completely rewritten.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Biologists searching for a resource that explores all of the exciting changes that have occurred recently in the field will turn to this eighth edition. It offers insight into the multidisciplinary nature of the field, presenting a sound historical base, up–to–date coverage, and a look at the latest controversies. The authors evaluate conflicting theories and provide a reasoned judgment as to which is preferable. In a new chapter the authors examine marine biogeography, so that biologists can compare and analyse the data, patterns and problems arising from continental, marine and island biogeography.
