Plant Invasions in Protected Areas
This book is the first comprehensive global review of all aspects of alien plant invasions in protected areas. It provides insights into advances in invasion ecology emanating from work in protected areas, and the link to locally relevant management support for protected areas. The book provides in-depth case studies, illuminating interesting and insightful knowledge that can be shared across the global protected area network. The book includes the collective understanding of 80 ecologists and managers to extract as much information as possible that will support the long-term management of protected areas, and the biodiversity and associated ecosystem services they maintain. “This outstand...
The Price of Silence
A Duke alumnus whose work has been hailed as “authoritative” (The Washington Post), “seductively engrossing” (Chicago Tribune), “riveting” (The Economist), and “masterful” (Los Angeles Times), presents a stunning new account of the infamous Duke lacrosse team case. Despite it being front-page nationwide news, the true story of the Duke lacrosse team rape case has never been told in its entirety. It is more complex and profound than all the reporting to date would indicate. The Price of Silence is the definitive account of what happens when the most combustive forces in American culture—unbridled ambition, intellectual elitism, athletic prowess, sexual and racial bias, and absolute prosecutorial authority—collide and then explode on a powerful university campus, in the justice system, and in the media. Deeply reported and brilliantly written, The Price of Silence shines a bright light on the ever-widening gap between America’s rich and poor, and how the powerful protect themselves, even at the price of justice.
Weed Seed Biology
Knowledge of weed biology is essential for development of both economically and environmentally acceptable weed management systems. With this background only, the book on “Weed Seed Biology” has been prepared. This book is a documentation of botany and seed biology of 42 dryland, 32 gardenland and 21 wetland weed species. The book consists of three major parts namely Part I: Seed biology of dryland weeds, Part II: Seed biology of gardenland weeds and Part III: Seed biology of wetland weeds. Each chapter deals with origin and distribution, habitat and habit, reproductive biology, flowering, pollination and fruit set, propagation and seed dispersal, lifecycle, seed dormancy and germination, and seed storage and burial. Besides, the past work done on weed Seed Science and Technology is also compiled by reviewing many literatures. It’s effects on crop production, control measures and uses are also included in each chapter. The book on “Weed Seed biology” is highly useful to the students, teachers and scientists specializing in weed seed science.
