Humility is good :)
While I'm a degreed (Iowa State University) and practicing statistician, in
a prior life I also received an advanced degree in Animal Ecology (actually
Limnology) from ISU.
Having not read your book I'm curious if there are general design types used
in Ecology, and if so, what are they? I tend to work in industrial
statistics which focuses heavily on factorial and response surface designs.
