"Ward has done extensive, excellent ecological work in the deserts of southern Africa and Israel...does an exemplary job juggling both plant and animal ecology."--Plant Science Bulletin
..".a unique text on desert biology."--Dr. Michael A. Mares, University of Oklahoma
"This book offers a unique cutting edge look at deserts."--Professor David Saltz, Ben Gurion University of The Negev, Israel
"Nevertheless, by compiling studies that represent taxa in different deserts into a comparative exploration of ecological pattern and process, the author establishes an engaging framework that allows readers to consider the convergent breadth of a particular solution to living in a harsh and extreme environment. This book might therefore raise questions that would launch a graduate student into a productive avenue of research. The volume could serve as a textbook for a seminar course on desert biology, provided availability of suplementary materials that fill in details on specific desert systems." -- The Quarterly Review of Biology, Volume 86
