Dismay at the 'intellectual sloppiness' of many utterances on environmental issues, and at the way ecology has come to be regarded as a political movement rather than a science, has motivated the author to marshal a coherent body of knowledge and methods for enviornmental science. Expert contributors describe in plain language, for the student, scientist, administrator or payman, the routes to more thorough understanding of the ecosystems we inhabit. 294 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.).
