The Routledge Handbook of Forest Ecology is an essential resource covering all aspects of forest ecology from a global perspective.

The Resilient City in World War II
The fate of towns and cities stands at the center of the environmental history of World War II. Broad swaths of cityscapes were destroyed by the bombing of targets such as transport hubs, electrical grids, and industrial districts, and across Europe, Asia, and the Americas, urban environments were transformed by the massive mobilization of human and natural resources to support the conflict. But at the same time, the war saw remarkable resilience among the human and non-human residents of cities. Foregrounding the concept of urban resilience, this collection uncovers the creative survival strategies that city-dwellers of all kinds turned to in the midst of environmental devastation. As the first major study at the intersection of environmental, urban, and military history, The Resilient City in World War II lays the groundwork for an improved understanding of rapid change in urban environments, and how societies may adapt.

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE
Biology is a part of science which manages the investigation of interrelationship among biotic and abiotic segments of nature just as relationship among the people of the biotic components. Biology has been characterized in various manners by various researchers and environmentalists. Ernest Haeckel (1866), a German scientist, interestingly characterized biology as "the group of information is concerning the economy of the nature the examination of the complete connection of creature to its inorganic and natural climate including over the entirety of its amicable and creature relations with those creatures and plants with which it comes straightforwardly or by implication into contact." The term Ecology' was gotten from two Greek words, OIKOS (implies house) and LOGUS (implies investigation of) to indicate the connection between the living beings and their current circumstance.
New Topics in Environmental Research
The environment is considered the surroundings in which an organism operates, including air, water, land, natural resources, flora, fauna, humans and their interrelation. It is this environment which is both so valuable, on the one hand, and so endangered on the other. And it is people which are by and large ruining the environment both for themselves and for all other organisms. This book reviews the latest research in this field which is vital for everyone.

Putin's Preventive Counter-Revolution
This book examines the 'preventive counter-revolution,' a programme of reforms and repression that transformed the face of Russian politics during Vladimir Putin's second term as president. Kremlin propagandists hailed this programme as a defence of national sovereignty against Western attempts to foment a 'velvet revolution' in Russia. But this book shows that the Putin regime was reacting to a real domestic threat: opposition leaders and youth activists who had begun to employ 'velvet' revolutionary methods in a campaign to harness popular grievances and to challenge Putin in the streets and at the ballot box. It traces the formulation and implementation of the regime's two-track response,...
