Ecological World View
by Charles Krebs
Written as an introduction for non-ecology majors, The Ecological World View is an important new text from Professor Charles Krebs, the highly successful author of several mainstream ecology textbooks. It is suitable for any course designed for science majors in general, and for biology students who are interested in a career in medicine, dentistry, or biotechnology.From the basic principles of population dynamics presented in this text, students will be able to understand the applied problems that appear in every newspaper - human population growth, pest control in agriculture, and the conservation of rare species. Action on practical problems can then flow from a conceptual understanding of theoretical ecological problems and an insight is gained into how the natural world works and how humans interact with the ecosystems of the planet.

Women in exile in early modern Europe and the Americas
by Linda Levy Peck, Adrianna E. Bakos
Exile, its pain and possibility, is the starting point of this book. Women's experience of exile was often different from that of men, yet it has not received the important attention it deserves. Women in exile in early modern Europe and the Americas addresses that lacuna through a wide-ranging geographical, chronological, social and cultural approach. Whether powerful, well-to-do or impoverished, exiled by force or choice, every woman faced the question of how to reconstruct her life in a new place. These essays focus on women's agency despite the pressures created by political, economic and social dislocation. Collectively, they demonstrate how these women from different countries, continents and status groups not only survived but also in many cases thrived. This analysis of early modern women's experiences not only provides a new vantage point from which to enrich the study of exile but also contributes important new scholarship to the history of women.
