Tropical Forests : Management and Ecology : Ecological Studies, Vol 112

Tropical forests are widely recognized as the most species-rich terrestrial ecosystems on earth, and include many of the world's most endangered habitats and organisms.

Biodiverse, economically crucial, and ecologically irreplaceable - tropical forests have captured the attention of scientists, policy makers, and all thoughtful citizens.

Tropical Forests: Management and Ecology addresses the need for a synthesis of information on both the ecological and the socioeconomic aspects of human use of tropical forest ecosystems.

This book will be a resource for ecologists, tropical biologists, foresters, natural resource specialists, and policymakers with an interest in the tropics.
