Editorial Reviews
Review
"Brooks and McLennan give us a new and clean way of looking at life on earth, rich in examples and practical advice. The Nature of Diversity is both phylogenetics and the environment, inextricably interwoven, rich in anachronisms and serendipity. This book is a must read for anyone addressing and building biodiversity understanding, an understanding that all of our societies must acquire if we are not all to be condemned to the trash heap." - Daniel H. Janzen, University of Pennsylvania
Product Description
Authors show how scientists can use diversity to unravel the evolutionary history of virtually any characteristic of any living thing, from behaviors to ecosystems. Provides a powerful new tool for understanding, documenting, and preserving the world's biodiversity.
