Review


On the first edition

‘The freshness of approach and the breadth and depth of coverage make most of the opposition seem a rather stale and restricted diet by comparison….All ecology teachers and students would do well to sample this nouvelle cuisine.’ [Nature]

On the second edition

‘It is better than the first edition in dealing with communities and ecosystems, and its treatment of population biology, broadly defined, is superb. Presentation – both prose and graphics – is efficient and clear without being prosaic or simplistic. Remarkably free of dogma, Begon et al. offer the incompleteness of ecology in an explicit and inviting way.

When asked which text they judged best or a sophomore level general ecology course for biology students, Begon et al. was chosen by 8 out of 10.’ [Ecology]



Product Description

This is the leading textbook of general ecology, with an unsurpassed world-wide reputation. While maintaining the basic structure of previous editions, this third edition is extensively rewritten to produce a forward-looking teaching resource that will lead the field to the end of the decade.

  • Largely rewritten and fully updated.
  • Maintains the balance between plant and animal ecology.
  • Greatly expanded coverage of applied ecology.
  • New chapter on conservation and sustainability.
  • Completely new two colour artwork.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Best all around resource for ecological studies, Mai 22 2003
Par Ray L Phenicie (Farmington Hills, MI United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
This review is from: Ecology (Book & CD-ROM Set) with CDROM (Paperback)
Begon's book is the best way to get a serious handle on the complexities of ecology. This book attempts no dumbing down and gives more resources than could ever be used in a lifetime.
The explanations given for basic concepts are unique and cannot be found anywhere else. For example, this book makes a clear point about the relationship between evolution and ecology. Chapter One starts off with a discussion of natural selection that is unique; seems that one must rely on an ecologist for a full understanding of evolution. Begon suggests that the word abaptation be used to describe the match that most organisms display with their environment because that word carries with it the historical meaning that is left out of the picture when the word adaptation is used to descirbe the match between organism and environment.
All important areas of ecology are covered; population dynamics, energy in communities and biological diversity. Again, I have yet to see, after having examined several major publishers' offerings, a better book for either someone just getting started in ecology or a person already well versed in the topic.
