Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Over the last 25 years, ecology has emerged from being a predominantly descriptive subject to one with a more substantial theoretical framework underpoinned by evidence from experiments. In this advance, improved technology has undoubtedly played a most significant role - few ecologists could operate without a computer to hand and many branches of the subject require very sophisticated instrumentation. This period has also seen much greater precision in the formation of hypotheses, a more general search for mechanisms increasing integration with other disciplines and increasing demands for applications of the lessons learned Book News Annotation:Reviews the most exact studies in a selection of fields within
ecology to consider the most currently fruitful approaches and
technologies, to determine the major obstacles to progress, and to
suggest the most profitable future lines of work. The main sections
cover physiological processes in free-living organisms; control of
population size; evolutionary and behavioral ecology;
interrelationships between organisms; ecosystem ecology; and applied
ecology.
