Recenzje

'...invaluable for the specialist in a variety of fields and a most interesting read even for the non-specialist' Environmental Policy and Practice '... this volume is essential reading for the bryophyte ecologist and for those concerned with the impact assessments. It should be bought by all major botanical and ecological libraries.' Journal of Bryology '...the book can be recommended to all those working in the field of plant ecology.'
