Greetings ECOLOGers,
I'm starting to plan an on-line course in ecology for next year, and would like
a smallish book (not a full textbook on ecology) that gives an outline of the
field (I'd also like one for entomology, by the way). Publishers seem to only
offer full-size, twice-as-much-as-I-can-cover-in-a-semester texts for $100 or
more.
Has anybody here read or used "Laws, Theories, and Patterns in Ecology" by
Walter Dodds? I can't find even a table of contents at Amazon or at the
publisher's website.
Barring that, any other suggestions?
I've looked for these books, but fear I may have to write my own course pack to
provide to my students what I am seeking.
