Wildlife Ecology: Conservation And Management
For the present purpose, we may state that "wildlife management" means "the management of animal populations within the framework of the environment." Some would find it too narrow, arguing that wildlife management should also include education, outreach, park management, law enforcement, economics and land appraisal since so many management issues are rooted in interactions between humans and animals. Many of the most pressing questions in wildlife ecology may be reduced to numbers, such as the rate of population increase, the extent of dispersion, or the effects of interactions with other species and the surrounding environment. A conceptual grasp of quantitative ecology is necessary for dealing with these issues. Because we can't always depend on experience to determine the most suitable options, mathematical models are also a vital part of decision-making in wildlife conservation and management. The book also demonstrates that a comprehensive approach is necessary to deal with environmental problems, as opposed to a piecemeal, single-pollutant, or single-medium approach.
A CHRONICLE ON PYCNONOTUS CAFER THE RED VENTED BULBUL
The book is a pioneer work on the extensive behavior of Red Vented Bulbul. Each action of this stunning bird is captured in the book with great precision. The book portrays the habits, habitat, nesting ecology, and feeding, breeding, moulting and acoustic behaviors of Red – Vented Bulbul (Pycnonotus cafer) with special reference to Udaipur Region of Rajasthan, India. It also emphasizes on the impact of urbanization on Red Vented Bulbul and threats and conservation problems associated with it. The book is a voyage to life of Red Vented Bulbul nicely depicting the art and intelligence of bird in nest making to the preferences in feeding manners and then to breeding patterns finally leading to an overwhelming parental care. The book also showcase novel observations which are unique in their own way such as the vocal outputs of voice, cob web theory, leucism and scate analysis to name a few. It is a complete narration of the events in the life span of bulbul and its role in the ecosystem.

Antipredator Defenses in Birds and Mammals
Tim Caro explores the many & varied ways in which prey species have evolved defensive characteristics and behaviour to confuse, outperform or outwit their predators, from the camoflaged coat of the giraffe to the extraordinary way in which South American sealions ward off the attacks of killer whales.
Sciencia
"Sciencia" gathers together six individual volumes spanning the realms of mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, evolution, and astronomy. Lavishly illustrated with engravings, woodcuts, and original drawings and diagrams, it inspires readers of all ages to take an interest in the interconnected knowledge of the modern sciences.
Birds as Monitors of Environmental Change
Birds as Monitors of Environmental Change looks at how bird populations are affected by pollutants, water quality, and other physical changes and how this scientific knowledge can help in predicting the effects of pollutants and other physical changes in the environment.
The Ecology of Phytoplankton
This important new book by Colin Reynolds covers the adaptations, physiology and population dynamics of phytoplankton communities. It provides basic information on composition, morphology and physiology of the main phyletic groups represented in marine and freshwater systems and in addition reviews recent advances in community ecology.
