*520  $a"As a fundamental and applied discipline, the study of ecology has continued to grow since the first edition of Ecology: From Individuals to Ecosystems was published in 1986. The fifth edition of this definitive textbook provides depth and breadth across the ecological sciences, detailing the levels of ecological organization and management in individuals, population, whole communities and ecosystems. Significant updates have been made throughout to include biogeochemical, molecular and evolutionary ecology topics including, neutral theory, food webs, metabolic theory, metacommunities, biodiversity and ecosystem functioning, extinction crises, carbon storage and energy flux through ecosystems. Now in full colour, this edition includes: * Explicit linking of population and community ecology through community modules/multi-trophic interactions * Thought bubbles, allowing students to easily assimilate the information contained within each figure * Examples and applications of the current state of the field * Coverage of global changes, including climate change, addressing the key environmental concerns for the coming decades This up-to-date textbook will provide students and ecologists with an essential reference on all aspects of ecology, preparing them to address environmental problems of the future"--$cProvided by publisher.

A definitive guide to the depth and breadth of the ecological sciences, revised and updated The revised and updated fifth edition of Ecology: From Individuals to Ecosystems – now in full colour – offers students and practitioners a review of the ecological sciences.  The previous editions of this book earned the authors the prestigious ‘Exceptional Life-time Achievement Award’ of the British Ecological Society – the aim for the fifth edition is not only to maintain standards but indeed to enhance its coverage of Ecology. In the first edition, 34 years ago, it seemed acceptable for ecologists to hold a comfortable, objective, not to say aloof position, from which the ecological communities around us were simply material for which we sought a scientific understanding. Now, we must accept the immediacy of the many environmental problems that threaten us and the responsibility of ecologists to play their full part in addressing these problems. This fifth edition addresses this challenge, with several chapters devoted entirely to applied topics, and examples of how ecological principles have been applied to problems facing us highlighted throughout the remaining nineteen chapters.  Nonetheless, the authors remain wedded to the belief that environmental action can only ever be as sound as the ecological principles on which it is based. Hence, while trying harder than ever to help improve preparedness for addressing the environmental problems of the years ahead, the book remains, in its essence, an exposition of the science of ecology. This new edition incorporates the results from more than a thousand recent studies into a fully up-to-date text.  Written for students of ecology, researchers and practitioners, the fifth edition of Ecology: From Individuals to Ecosystems is anessential reference to all aspects of ecology and addresses environmental problems of the future.
