Reviews

"...it is hard to find a comprehensive text in tropical ecology, and this volume does lend itself to that purpose. Makes an excellent reference for advanced undergraduates and graduates." Trends in Plant Sciences

"The book is written as a comprehensive reading suitable for both students and scientists in plant ecophysiology: it includes numerous explanations of relevant physiological, biochemical and biophysical terms and processes in the form of "boxes" with references for more details. Abundant figures, schemes, and photographs make the book self-explanatory and attractive. The book is good in every aspect". biologia plantarum
