Product description
About the Author
Review
"Pugnaire and Valladares have managed to pull together a wide range of subjects with the depth and breadth of a series of essays, but the accessibility of a textbook."
―Annals of Biology, Oxford Journals, vol. 102 no. 5
"…a well-structured handbook covering most trends in the field with interesting details. It is highly recommended not only to ecologists but to all biologists"
―Photosynthetica
"…an admirable job of outlining a research landscape which will likely grow in importance in the post-genomics era as plant biologists return to the long-standing question of understanding plant function diversity, or, in other words, understanding why there are so many ways of being an evolutionary successful plant."
―Phytochemistry
"…a highly scientific work…responds to a wide range of needs"
―Advances in Horticultural Science
"…is of great interest to researchers involved in sustainable forestry…definitely on the highly recommended list."
―Journal of Sustainable Forestry
"This volume contains comprehensive, authoritative original reviews of numerous, wide-ranging topics in this approach to plant ecology. The reviews by well-chosen, often internationally recognized experts are quite readable, on target, and very well documented … . Almost without exception, every chapter provides an excellent, accessible perspective and introduction to the field and its current status. Highly recommended."
―W. Loescher, Michigan State in CHOICE, Vol. 45, No. 9, 2008
