Non-native Species and Their Role in the Environment: The Need for a Broader Perspective
ISBN: 9789004172661 / Angielski / Twarda / 316 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The young field of invasion biology - initially a branch of ecology and conservation biology - has greatly expanded, particularly in the last two and a half decades or so. As a result, the potential negative effects of introduced species have been widely advertised and sometimes, perhaps, overemphasized. This book attempts to restore some balance to the current debate over the role of non-native species, by offering a broader perspective, and taking a longer term, evolutionary look at these species and their impact in their new environments. The relatively arbitrary nature of terms such as...

Insects: Evolutionary Success, Unrivaled Diversity, and World Domination
ISBN: 9781421421704 / Angielski / Twarda / 488 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Too often, David B. Rivers argues, entomology is taught using a dry taxonomic approach that the average biology major finds both dull and painful. Students should, Rivers believes, become fascinated with insects by the end of a course that examines more than 75% of all animal diversity on Earth--around two quintillion individual insects. With refreshing energy, Insects tells the gripping story of how and why this six-legged life form has been so remarkably successful--and is poised to take over the world. Designed as an introduction to the intriguing world of insect biology,... Too often, David B. Rivers argues, entomology is taught using a dry taxonomic approach that the average biology major finds both dull and painful. ... |

Rob DeSalle and Ian Tattersall explain how science has been misused to sustain belief in the biological basis of racial classification.

Sensory Transduction
ISBN: 9780198835035 / Angielski / Miękka / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. How are sights and sounds and smells converted into electrical signals in a form that can be interpreted by the nervous system? Although this process, called sensory transduction, began to be understood only relatively recently, so much progress has been made that it is now possible to say at least in outline (but in most cases in remarkable detail) how transduction occurs for all of the major sense organs of the body. Since the first edition was published in 2003, many new experiments have radically changed some of our previously-held views.This new edition fulfils the book's original aims,...
