This new textbook fills an important niche by offering a lively overview of the principles of ecology for a broad audience including college level science and biology students as well as readers interested in the fundamentals of ecological science. Filled with many vivid examples of topic issues and current events, "The Ecological World View" develops a basic understanding of how the natural world works and of how humans interact with the planet's natural ecosystems.
