Analytical Biogeography: An Integrated Approach to the Study of Animal and Plant Distributions

Description:

A synthesis of biogeographical theory and methodology, bringing together ecological, evolutionary, phylogenetic, geological and quantitative approaches to the study of animal and plant distributions. Published at a period when cladistics, vicariance theory and plate tectonics were transforming historical biogeography, the work helped establish a more explicitly analytical and hypothesis-driven approach to the subject.
