Plant Invaders: The threat to natural ecosystems (Wwf Manuals in Plant Conservation Vol. 1) - Softcover
Synopsis
As with each of the books in the series, Plant Invaders: The threat to natural ecosystems aims to give an authoritative account of the subject in a jargon-free style. It should therefore be of interest not only to the biologists studying plant invasion, but also to land managers and others concerned with practical conservation.
Case studies of invasive species highlight specific problems from a wide range of countries, including North America, Africa, Australia, South and South East Asia, Europe, and the Pacific and Atlantic islands.
The book contains an invaluable list of invasive species with their countries of origin and regions of introduction. A full bibliography carries references to all cited articles and books.

Review
[This book] is a practical guide including case-studies and an appendix with a list of invasive species and their countries of origin
Bookseller
I rather enjoyed this book ... at times I found myself fully immersed in a science fiction world of immortal propagules, uncontested vigour and unwitting dispersal agents spreading the plague to the four corners - I shall never look at the mud on my boots in quite the same light again.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In a new series in plant conservation sponsored by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), this book is a practical guide to a subject of increasing concern to the conservation biologist. As with each of the books in the series, this book aims to give an authoritative guide to the subject in a clear, jargon-free style. It should therefore not only be of interest to the academic biologist interested in the phenomenon of invasion, but also to government and non-governmental personnel involved in the decision-making process needed as a result of the problems encountered with invasive species. Case-studies highlight specific problems from a wide range of countries, including North America, South and Central America, Africa, Australasia, South and South East Asia, Europe, the Pacific and Atlantic Islands and Indonesia. The book contains an appendix with a list of invasive species and their countries of origin. A bibliography contains reference to all cited articles and books.This book should be of interest to conservation biologists, economic botanists, ethnobotanists, plant ecologists, agriculturalists, those interested in development problems, geographers, environmental scientists, ecotourists and "green" lay people. This text is a practical guide to a subject of increasing concern to the conservation biologist. It aims to give an authoritative guide to the subject in a clear, jargon-free style. Case-studies highlight specific problems from a wide range of countries. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
