About this title

Synopsis

Surveys the state-of-knowledge concerning the dramatic rearrangement of the Earth's biota over the past few centuries. An international group of contributors examines animals, plants, and microorganisms that have been successful invaders in nonagricultural regions, with emphasis on those that have disrupted ecosystem function. Presents reports from Great Britain, the Continent, the Mediterranean, Africa, and the U.S., including an overview of cross-continental comparisons.
