Title Species invasions : insights into ecology, evolution, and biogeography / edited by Dov F. Sax, John J. Stachowicz, and Steven D. Gaines.
Publication Sunderland, Mass. : Sinauer Associates, c2005.
Material Info. xiii, 495 p. : ill.
Summary Note "The study of species invasions to date has focused mainly on applied aspects. This book explores the potential of invasive species studies to offer insights into fundamental research issues in ecology, evolution, conservation biology, and biogeography. Contributed chapters by provide a framework applicable to general ecological studies"--Provided by publisher.
