Molecular Genetic Approaches in Conservation
ISBN: 9780195095265 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 504 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Molecular techniques are proving invaluable in determining the phylogenetic status of potentially endangered species, for investigating mechanisms of speciation, and for measuring the genetic structure of populations. It is increasingly important for ecologists and evolutionary and conservation biologists to understand and use such molecular techniques, but most workers in these areas have not been trained in molecular biology. This book lays out the principles and basic techniques for the molecular tools appropriate for addressing issues in conservation, and it presents case studies showing...

Evolutionary Biology of Aging
ISBN: 9780195095302 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This unique book looks at the biology of aging from a fundamentally new perspective, one based on evolutionary theory rather than traditional concepts which emphasize molecular and cellular processes. The basis for this approach lies in the fact that natural selection, as a powerful determining force, tends to decline in importance with age. Many of the characteristics we associate with aging, the author argues, are more the result of this decline than any mechanical imperative contained within organic structures. This theory in turn yields the most fruitful avenues for seeking answers to the...

Last Stand: Protected Areas and the Defense of Tropical Biodiversity
ISBN: 9780195095548 / Angielski / Twarda / 1997 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. During the past century, tropical rain forests have been reduced to about half of their original area, with a consequent loss of biodiversity. This book takes a close look at how this has happened and what the consequences may be, with an emphasis on those strategies that have proven successful in stemming the loss of plant and animal inhabitants. It describes the use of protected areas such as sacred groves, royal preserves, and today's national parks, which have long served to shield the delicate forest habitats for countless species. Although programs for protecting habitats are under...

Beginning Again: People and Nature in the New Millennium
ISBN: 9780195096378 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Early in this volume, David Ehrenfeld describes what prophecy really is. Referring to the biblical prophets, he says they were not the "holy fortunetellers that the word prophet has come to signify....The business of prophecy is not simply foretelling the future; rather it is describing the present with exceptional truthfulness and accuracy." Once this is done, then it can be seen that broad aspects of the future have suddenly become apparent.
The twentieth century is drawing to a chaotic close amidst portents of unprecedented change and upheaval. The unravelling of societies and... Early in this volume, David Ehrenfeld describes what prophecy really is. Referring to the biblical prophets, he says they were not the "holy fortunete...

Do Lemmings Commit Suicide?: Beautiful Hypotheses and Ugly Facts
ISBN: 9780195097856 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Unlike nearly all science books which tell of successful ventures and satisfactory conclusions, this book reveals the harsher but more common side of scientific research. Written by one of this century's most distinguished small mammal ecologists, it is both a personal history of and an apology for a life in science spent working on problems for which no final dramatic closure was reached. Included along the way are important anecdotes and history about Charles Elton and his pioneering work at the Bureau of Animal Population at Oxford University, from which much of modern population has...

Do Lemmings Commit Suicide?
ISBN: 9780195097863 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In 1929, a group of scientists, including the author, working at the Bureau of Animal Population, Oxford University, began "the pursuit of the ecological Holy Grail," a scientific endeavor devoted to the search for the secret mechanisms behind biological life cycles as they occur in many animal populations. The results are presented here, in an account of science, not as it should be, but as it really is. Unlike nearly all science books which tell of successful ventures and satisfactory conclusions, this book reveals the harsher story of a scientific question left unanswered. Written by one...

Natural Hybridization and Evolution
ISBN: 9780195099751 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This study draws on data from numerous sources that support the paradigm of natural hybridization as an important evolutionary process. The review of these data results in a challenge to the framework used by many evolutionary biologists, which sees the process of natural hybridization as maladaptive because it represents a violation of divergent evolution. In contrast, this book presents evidence of a significant role for natural hybridization in furthering adaptive evolution and evolutionary diversification in both plants and animals.
