hardcover. Condizione: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor.

We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. 1st Edition. Hardcover, xi + 345 pages, b&w photos, figures and maps in text, NOT ex-library. Interior is clean and bright throughout, with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. A light corner crease on last pages. Boards show creases to lower corners. Bright, untorn dust jacket with gentle creasing. -- This ecological study unravels the great paradox of the Australian continent: how lush, fire-sensitive rainforests manage to survive and persist in a landscape overwhelmingly dominated by and adapted to flame. The central argument rejects the view of rainforests as static, museum-like relics of a bygone Gondwanan era. Instead, it presents them as dynamic, embattled ecosystems locked in a constant struggle for territory at their boundaries with fire-prone sclerophyll vegetation. The analysis provides a comprehensive overview of the continent's diverse rainforest types - from the tropical Wet Tropics of Queensland to the temperate wilderness of Tasmania - and investigates the complex interplay of soils, climate, and topography that allows them to exist. This is a foundational text for understanding the deep history, precarious present, and uncertain future of these vital "islands of green." -- Contents: Preface; 1 Introduction 2 What is Australian rainforest? 3 The sclerophyll problem 4 The edaphic theory I.

Aridity and the evolution of flammable forests 13 The fire theory VI. Fire management and rainforest conservation 14 Summary; References; Index -- Why do Australian rainforests occur as islands within the vast tracts of Eucalyptus? Why is fire a critical ecological factor in every Australian landscape? What were the consequences of the use of fire by the Ice Age colonists? In this original and challenging book, David Bowman critically examines all hypotheses that have been advanced to answer these questions. He demonstrates that fire is the most critical factor in controlling the distribution of rainforest throughout Australia. Furthermore, while Aboriginal people used fire to skillfully manage and preserve habitats, he concludes that they did not significantly influence the evolution of Australia's unique flora and fauna. This volume, the first comprehensive overview of the diverse literature on this topic, solves the puzzle of the archipelago of rainforest habitats in Australia. It is essential reading for all ecologists, foresters, conservation biologists, and others interested in the biogeography and ecology of Australian rainforests.…
