The Boxwood Press: Basic Ecology

BASIC ECOLOGY

2ND EDITION

by Dr. Ralph and Mildred Buchsbaum, and Lisa Uttal
Reprinted, updated, in preparation ISBN:0-940168-41-3

THIS classic text, first published in 1957, has been completely revised for the new millenium. Realizing the continuing need for people to "think ecologically," the authors have updated the material and added new chapters, but retained the basic principles, including carbon and nitrogen cycles, food webs, biomes, periodic changes, and ecological sucession. Basic Ecology is an ideal supplement for the high school or first-year college student, and it is meant to stimulate thought and discussion, rather than be a pedantic collection of scientific knowledge. Written in the same straightforward style that made the authors famous for their invertebrate texts, Animals without Backbones and Living Invertebrates, this book is an invaluable tool for understanding ecology.
