New in HOORC's Library: Seeking Nature's Limits


Seeking nature's limits : ecologists in the field offers an accessible view of the world of working ecology through stories from first hand experience of field researchers. Originally published as an academic festschrift, the content is grouped by ecological function: under Carrying Capacity we find Utopia for Waterbirds, or is the bonanza over already?: Wetlands Under Pressure, and under Sex and Society: What are the Rules? is Herbert Prins' study of buffalo democracy on African savannas. You can find the attractively illustrated book in HOORC's Library.
