Product Description
This introductory general ecology text features a strong emphasis on helping students grasp the main concepts of ecology while keeping the presentation more applied than theoretical. An evolutionary perspective forms the foundation of the entire discussion. The book begins with the natural history of the planet, considers portions of the whole in the middle chapters, and ends with another perspective of the entire planet in the concluding chapter. Its unique organization of focusing only on several key concepts in each chapter sets it apart from the competition. |

Works, but not what I would describe as "very good condition" by Elinor 4 Stars
April 22, 2009
I needed the book quickly, and the seller provided it quickly, for which I was thankful.
The book, however, was described as 'very good condition,' which I found to not be the case: upon receiving the package, I saw that the (soft) cover was ripped.
Maybe the rip happened during transit, but I wasn't quite sure how that would work inside a bubble mailer when the envelope remained intact--just not the book.
