I guess readers can also find their own answers to their questions on invasive species. I would strongly recommend this book as a reference book rather than as a textbook. If one explores the references, it does provide enough literature for further study … worthwhile to keep in the libraries and bookshelves of ecologists, foresters and conservationists.” (S. Suresh Ramanan, Journal of Threatened Taxa, Vol. 9 (11), November, 2017) This book had better answers to the questions in me.
