The Song of the Dodo: Island Biogeography in an Age of Extinctions
- Publisher : Hutchinson
- Published In : London
- Illustrations : maps
Description:
Maps by Kris Ellingsen. The author considers why island ecosystems always suffered such high rates of extinction? In our age, with the world's landscapes, from Tasmania to the Amazon to Yellowstone, being carved into island-like fragments by human activity, the implications of this question are more urgent than ever. Over eight years, David Quammen has followed the threads of island biogeography travelling from Tasmania to the Amazon and Yellowstone.
