5.0 out of 5 stars A "must have" text for ecology, May 6, 2000
This review is from: Ecology (Hardcover)
An excellent book for the principles of ecology, especially community and population ecology. Provides an introduction to all the basic concepts in ecology and reviews all the milestone studies in the field. Further, it indicates recent trends in research in the field. The language has been kept simple and equations listed are explained very well. Graphs, pictures and diagrams support the the text and useful in enlightening the reader on key concepts. I would say that it is currently the best text book available in ecology for students and ecologists

5.0 out of 5 stars College text that is approachable by the non-scientist, December 24, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Ecology (Hardcover)
I was taught from the first edition of this book by the author himself a few decades ago. Even more-so now than then, the book actually reads well and can be grasped by the non-scientist with a biological bent.

Ecology covers the complex interactions between organisms and their environment. It explains why things are as they are in nature with illustrative cases and a quantitative approach to their analysis. How glad I was to find this updated version of an old favorite.
