Product Description

Product Description

This best-selling majors ecology text continues to present ecology as a series of problems for students to critically analyze. No other text presents analytical, quantitative, and statistical ecological information in an equally accessible style. Reflecting the way ecologists actually practice, the book emphasizes the role of experiments in testing ecological ideas and discusses many contemporary and controversial problems related to distribution and abundance. Throughout the text, Krebs thoroughly explains the application of mathematical concepts in ecology while reinforcing these concepts with research references, examples, and interesting end-of-chapter review questions. Thoroughly updated with new examples and references, the text now features a new full-color design and is accompanied by an art CD-ROM for instructors, a Companion Website and EvolutionLab for students, and a subscription to The Biology Place.

5.0 out of 5 stars Essential Reading for Ecology, 12 Feb 2009
By Mr. Simon P. Kettle "teapot119" (Solihull, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book writes out the underlying principles for Ecology and is best used as an undergraduate text book and postgraduate and beyonds reference book. The author has spelled out the principles of ecology with examples of scientific study that suggests the behaviour and natural order of plants and animals in the natural work.

I would recommend this as important reading for anyone studying natutral sciences, earth science, biology and others interested in Ecology and its fundamentals.
