Reviews
"Mark Davis's new book provides a rich, multidisciplinary examination of the contemporary field of invasion biology. There is remarkable breadth of topical material in Invasion Biology . -- Ecology "A fascinating hybrid collection of literature review, introduction of new theory, and critique."-- Biological Invasions "Davis writes well, and clearly. But his big contribution is to the skeptical re-examination of the field as a whole. This book will not kill it off. But if, over time, invasion biology were to become absorbed into broader ecological fields...future historians of science might see Invasion Biology as the beginning of the end."-- Nature, An essential reference for invasion biologists and a useful addition to the library of other ecologists. It is also an excellent starting point for those new to the field. Davis has produced a thorough record of the current state of the subject, and he has charted a roadmap that will guide research for years to come., Davis writes well, and clearly. But his big contribution is to the sceptical re-examination of the field as a whole. This book will not kill it off. But if, over time, invasion biology were to become absorbed into broader ecological fields that focus on the movement of species, future historians of science might see Invasion Biology as the beginning of the end., "An essential reference for invasion biologists and a useful addition to the library of other ecologists.
