Description:
This book explains ways that ecological science can be applied to
solving some of the most crucial problems facing our world today. A
major theme is how resources can be effectively managed and
exploited in as near a sustainable manner as possible. The author
draws together, in a single volume, major topics in environmental
and resource management that have traditionally been dispersed
among several different books. Applied Ecology starts with
an analysis of our planet's basic natural resources - energy, water
and soil; it moves on to the management of biological resources -
fish, grazing lands and forests, and then to pest control and
pollution. Finally, the book tackles conservation and management of
wild species and the restoration of ecological communities.
The second edition of this text has been radically redesigned
and rewritten. Each chapter starts with a list of questions,
setting out the various fundamental problems to be considered.
Interwoven with these practical problems is a clear explanation of
the underlying basic science - ecology - studied at scales ranging
from global, landscape and ecosystem, down to the population and
individual (and even their physiology and genetics). The science is
illustrated by examples from every major geographic area of the
world.
This book is aimed primarily at undergraduate students taking
courses in applied ecology, environmental science, environmental
management and natural resources management. The author has
extensive experience as a university teacher. Like his lectures,
this book is scientifically rigorous yet clear and easy to
understand.

Softer and Larger than Expected
I was a bit wary of this shirt because I had only purchased 100% cotton ones in the past. My first impression out of the package was how soft the material felt. I was very impressed because it usually takes many washings before oxford cloth shirts get that soft. When I put it on, I discovered that there was no noticeable difference made with the small amount of stretch fabric woven into the shirt. I suspect that there would be some give if I wore the shirt as a tight fit, but I prefer my shirts loose, so it wasn't an issue.
I found that the shirt was larger than other same sized shirts I've received from Amazon in the past--bigger is better than smaller, but if you are looking for a close fit, you will want to be conservative in the size you order. I didn't realize until I'd been wearing it for a while that it lacks a pocket, I went to put my glasses in my shirt pocket and there wasn't one!

Looks great
I got this to make a memorial shirt for my grandmas funeral. I was worried it may be too hot but the fabric is thick and breathable. Easy to heat press on. Looks great! I actually want to buy another

Good fit, stays tucked.
A little long to wear untucked, but long enough to stay tucked through the work day.

Very small for the indicated size. Fairly thick, more like a Fall shirt than a Summer one
This is almost a 3 star shirt, but it has some drawbacks:
1. it is very short for it's size. I ordered an XX (2X) because I am not skinny. But I am not short either. This shirt would probably be tall enough for a very round 5ft tall man.. but if you are of average or slightly taller than average height you may find the torso length to be radically too small (unless you'r using this as a half-shirt for the gym or beach to show off those abs. :-D ... I am a bit more conservative in nature and so this shirt simply doesn't cut it.
*so: if you have a VERY SHORT TORSO this may be a great option for you! :-)
Thickness of fabric; the material is really thick. I was immediately getting warm when wearing this. It is advertised as a summer shirt but really it is more appropriate for Fall or Winter.
Otherwise, the buttons seem durable, the stitching is adequate, and the price ain't bad.
Lets call it 2.75 stars; recommended only on conditions indicated above.
