The Song of the Dodo: Island Biogeography in an Age of Extinctions
by:
David Quammen (author)
In Darwin's time, island biogeography was the science that opened Victorian minds to the wonder of evolution. Today with all the world's wild landscape being chopped into island-like fragments, it's the science of jeopardy and extinction. This book combines science, historical narrative and travel.
