Paperback. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. Illustrated with a few charts, octavo, pp xxii, 452, upper corners slightly bruised, otherwise very clean internally, paperback, the upper corner slightly creased. ["Habitat fragmentation and global climate change are the two major environmental threats to the persistence of species and ecosystems. The probability of a species surviving such changes is strongly dependent on its ability to track shifts in the environmental, either by moving between patches of habitat or by rapidly adapting to local condition. These 'solutions' to problems posed by environmental change depend on dispersal propensity, motivating our desire to better understand this important behavior. This book is a comprehensive overview of the new developments in the study of dispersal and the state-of-the-art research on the evolution of this trait. The causes, mechanisms, and consequences of dispersal at the individual, population, and species levels are considered. The promise of new techniques and models for studying dispersal, drawn from molecular biology and demography is explored. Perspectives on the study of dispersal are offered from evolution, conservation biology, and genetics. Throughout the book, theoretical approaches are combined with empirical data, and examples are included from as wide a range of species as possible."].

Paperback. Condition: Near Fine. Paperback in near fine condition, bumped corner. Inscribed by author on half title page. In nature there exist three main types of biotic interactions between individuals of different species: competition, predation, and mutualism. All three exert powerful selection pressures, and all three shape communities. However, the question of how important interspecific competition in nature really is remains controversial and unresolved. This book provides a critical and exhaustive review of the topic. Although the examples are limited mostly to birds (interspecific competition and community structure have been exhaustively studied in this animal group, and a lot of experimental data are available), the conclusions reached have a far broader relevance to population ecologists in general. The book reasons that the coexistence of species is the result of both past and presently on-going interspecific competition. Furthermore, understanding the importance of interspecific competition in natural systems will be increasingly important when modelling the effects of climate change on populations.

Condition: Good. xxi, 452, text figs. . PB. Corner bumped. Crease to corner or rear wrapper. Good. The ability of species to migrate that has interested ecologists for many years. Now that so many species and ecosystems face major environmental change, the ability of species to adapt to these changes by dispersing, migrating, or moving between different patches of habitat can be crucial to ensuring their survivial. This book provides a timely and wide-ranging overview of the study of dispersal and incorporates much of the latest research. The causes, mechanisms, and consequences of dispersal at the individual, population, species and community levels are considered. The potential of new techniques and models for studying dispersal, drawn from molecular biology and demography, is also explored. Perspectives and insights are offered from the fields of evolution, conservation biology and genetics. Throughout the book, theoretical approaches are combined with empirical data, and care has been taken to include examples from as wide a range of species as possible. [9780198506591].

Wijnen: de basis is een uitgebreide en toegankelijke inleiding tot wijnkennis voor zowel beginners als gevorderden. Het boek behandelt grondbeginselen van wijnbouw, vinificatie, druivensoorten, smaakprofielen, regio?s, serveertechnieken en food-pairing. De heldere structuur en combinatie van tekst met illustraties en tabellen maken het een praktische gids voor iedereen die zijn wijnbegrip wil verdiepen. Wijnen: de basis begint met een overzicht van de geschiedenis van wijn en de verschillende wijnbouwgebieden wereldwijd. Vervolgens behandelt het de biologische en klimatologische factoren die de wijnkwaliteit beïnvloeden, gevolgd door technische hoofdstukken over productiemethoden, druivenrassen en klassificatiesystemen. Het midden- en achterste deel van het boek richt zich op smaakidentificatie, sensorische analyse, etikettering, rijping en bewaartechnieken, en food-pairing. Diverse hoofdstukken bevatten casestudies van prominente wijnregio?s, minutieuze beschrijvingen van terroir-effecten, en verklarende schema?s voor het onderscheiden van wijnstijlen. Door theoretische achtergrond te combineren met praktische toepassingen vormt deze publicatie een belangrijke basisreferentie voor opleidingen in horeca, wijnhandel en wijnliefhebbers. De reeks auteurs bestaat uit sommeliers, wijnexperts en docenten die gespecialiseerd zijn in wijneducatie en de toepassing ervan binnen gastronomie en horeca-opleidingen. J. Beernaert staat als hoofdredacteur en coördinator voor het integreren van wijnwetenschap, sensoriek en praktijkervaring. De brede multidisciplinaire bijdrage van het team verzekert een evenwichtige combinatie van theoretische diepgang en toepasbare kennis.

[0-19-854860-5] 1996. (Hardcover) Fine, no dust jacket. 420pp. Tables, charts, diagrams, illustrations, notes, indices. "The idea for this book arose from an attempt to comprehend the evolution and maintenance of long-term monogamy in geese and swans, species in which mates maintain contact all day, each season, often for life. Somehow these pair members stay together in large foraging flocks and during gruelling migrations. The stimulus behind the book was sheer intrigue about the possible link between the partners' team work and reproductive performance and why this lifestyle varies across species" - from the 1995 Preface by Jeffrey Black. Book about Monogamy. Contributors include Frank Adriaensen, Russell P. Balda, T. R. Birkhead, Stuart Bradley, Sharmila Choudhury, Andre Desrochers, Andre A. Dhondt, Steven D. Emslie, Bruno J.
