Conveying the wide-ranging scope of forestry and the great challenges that lie ahead, this Third Edition of Introduction to Forest Ecosystem Science and Management gives you a borad overview of the field of forestry, as well as the detail you'll need to succeed in your role as a practicing forestry professional.

Condition: Acceptable. LIGHTNING FAST SHIPPING! A heavily used, but still working copy. Coffee stain and wrinkling to the edge of the pages when a tired undergrad fell asleep and knocked their cup over on their books. The binding and pages of the book have been reinforced with tape, has tape and stickers on the cover, as well as lots of notes (some of the answers in the learning activities may be filled in) on the pages. Definitely not pretty, but it's a working copy at a great price that ships fast. ~ Book does NOT contain an access code or CD/DVD. Seller Inventory # #180B-00105
