Reviews

The authors accomplished their goal for this book by providing readers with a thorough yet succinct background on agroecosystems, including the biological pressures and issues that must be considered in successful management of these complex systems. The Biology of Agroecosystems would be beneficial to students, land managers, and researchers with an interest in balancing agricultural production and natural resource conservation. * Andrew R. Little, Journal of Wildlife Management *
