Publisher's Synopsis
"Frontiers in Ecology: Building the Links" is a vital book, identifying the major links in ecology. Not only does it consider the role of ecology in the future, but it provides critical lessons from the past and present. It challenges researchers, managers, politicians and the general public to broaden their understanding of ecology and environmental management. The challenge for ecology is to find ways of developing and applying a crucial science to a world that is driven by economics, policies and people. This book takes an important step in identifying the need to forge strong links between these disparate fields as we focus on the frontiers of ecology in the new millennium.
