Yvonne Baskin Libri

Introducing exotic creatures--from bacteria and fungi to microscopic nematode worms, springtails, and mud shrimp--Baskin shows what scientists are learning about their contribution to sustaining a green and healthy world above ground.

Science writer Yvonne Baskin provides an overview of the problem of harmful invasive alien species. She takes the reader on a worldwide tour of grasslands, gardens, waterways and forests, describing the troubles caused by exotic organisms that run amok in new settings. schovat popis
