Tropical Forest Ecology
In Tropical Forest Ecology, Egbert G. Leigh, Jr., one of the world's foremost tropical ecologists, introduces readers to the tropical forest and describes the intricate web of interdependence among the great diversity of tropical plants and animals. Focusing on the tropical forest of Barro Colorado Island, Panama, Leigh shows what Barro Colorado can tell us about other tropical forests--and what tropical forests can tell us about Barro Colorado. This book considers three essential questions for understanding the ecological organization of tropical forests. How do they stay green with their abundance of herbivores? Why do they have such a diversity of plants and animals? And what role does mutualism play in the ecology of tropical forests? Beautifully written and abundantly illustrated, Tropical Forest Ecology will certainly appeal to a wide variety of scientists in the fields of evolution, tropical biology, botany, zoology, and natural history.
Public Broadcasters
Public broadcasting is under threat. The BBC is facing its greatest challenge since its inception as satellite channels proliferate and private sector broadcasting becomes more cost effective. This book examines the trends in public broadcasting and assesses how public broadcasters can adapt to change. It suggests that public broadcasters will face a decade of reduced audiences and revenues and rising costs. Public and political support will be eroded as the range and choice of TV and radio programmes provided by the private sector multiplies. Public broadcasters will face pressures to cut costs and improve their public accountability. Against this pessimistic background the book examines the measures public broadcasters should take to improve their efficiency and accountability, and stresses the benefits of involving the public in the process of redefining aims and objectives. Finally, it assesses the potential benefits of privatization for public broadcasters.

Against the Flow
The infamous Arizona Territory was a place to be avoided like the plague. Like Go Noi Island, it was a free-fire zone that had seen lots of action. Yet right now, everything was deadly quiet. The usually melodic birds were muted. Not a breath of wind rustled the trees. The powdery red dirt under the Leathernecks’ dusty boots swirled in mini explosions. The Marines knew Charlie, the enemy, was out there, but the platoon didn’t realize they had walked into the kill zone. The silence was ruptured as explosions from heavy automatic weapons, grenades, and mortar fire rained upon the Marines. “Corpsman up!” The two words shouted on the battlefield sent a shockwave of adrenalin and activity...
