内容説明

This fully revised edition offers up-to-date coverage of ideas, data and directions in modern ecology. With a balance of theory and principles plus examples of structure and function in natural systems, this text should help unravel the interrelationships of organisms and their environment. Features of this edition include: new chapters on population genetics, biodiversity, and biogeography; a new section on ecological applications, with chapters covering extinction and conservation, and development and global ecology; an expanded chapter on sex, family and society; and centralized coverage of predation/competition, mutualism and organism adaptation.
