About this book
Reviews
"This book must be regarded as the most integrated, informative and accessible account of the complexities of plant physiological ecology." -- Plant Science
From the reviews of the second edition:
"Plant ecophysiology ... explain the physiological mechanisms underlying ecological observations. … wherever you look in this book, important topics are examined with thoroughness and clarity. … this is a very fine book indeed, and one that should be read by all plant ecologists … ." (Ken Thompson, Annals of Botany, Vol. 103 (1), January, 2009)
"The book covers classical topics in plant physiological ecology, including water and carbon relations, energy balance, and mineral nutrition. … This book would make an excellent resource for undergraduate or graduate courses in plant physiological ecology, and it is an essential reference for professional ecologists and plant physiologists. Summing Up: Highly recommended. All undergraduates, graduate students, researchers, faculty, and professionals." (R. B. Pratt, Choice, Vol. 46 (8), April, 2009)
