Beginning with physiology and life history, M. Crawley’s Plant Ecology
works its way through to population biology and biodiversity. In all of these
areas plants do behave differently from animals and their ways of coping with
life from a static start makes them worthy of special attention. Published by
Blackwell, £29.50, ISBN 0632035397. Second edition.
