It will undoubtedly continue to appeal to students as a reasonably priced, clear introduction to many important aspects of ecology and environmental studies. Bulletin of the British Ecological Society This well written text begins with human evolution, and then leads on through species and populations (single or interacting) to communities and ecosystems - and the way they respond to disturbance, natural or human created. The book is notable for the skilful way it weaves together basic concepts with practical applications. Lord Robert May, University of Oxford

`Review of this edition: 'The way technical terms are introduced in context rather than by formal definition is excellent - students are much more likely to understand terms presented this way.' ' Dr Simon Cragg, University of Portsmouth, UK `Review of this edition: 'Clearly, this textbook would be an excellent choice for those who are relatively new in the field of ecology, but want to focus on both principles and applications of ecology.' ' Dr. Zhi-Qing Lin, Southern Illinois University, USA `Review of this edition: 'For the student, the text is written in a clear easy-to-read style with ample images, descriptive figures and tables and interesting case studies. It is likely that elements of Beeby & Brennan's refreshing approach will influence more detailed ecology texts for years to come.' ' Dr Andy Le Brocque, University of Southern Queensland, Australia
