Ecological Understanding (The Nature of Theory and the Theory of Nature)
Editorial Reviews
Review
"Given our growing need for ecologists and other environmental scientists with an ecumenical view of their subject, and a sensitive awareness of its complexities and inherent multiplicity of spatial and temporal scales, Pickett, Kolasa and Jones' book is especially timely."
--From the Foreward by ROBERT M. MAY, Oxford University, U.K.
"A thought-provoking book."
--BIOLOGICAL JOURNAL OF THE LINNEAN SOCIETY
"Since many ecologists may think that physics is the science, Ecology Understanding offers a refreshing alternative.... Ecology Understanding offers the reader an interesting and thoughtful discussion of theory development, ecological integration, and scientific understanding from a philosophical viewpoint."
--THE QUARTERLY REVIEW OF BIOLOGY
