Paperback. Condizione: New. An Illustrated Guide to British Upland Vegetation is the first comprehensive, single book on plant communities in the British uplands. It provides concise descriptions of all currently recognised British upland vegetation types. Written by a team comprising some of the most experienced upland field botanists and ecologists in the UK, the book brings together all of the upland communities described in the National Vegetation Classification together with a number of previously undescribed assemblages of plant species.A key enables the reader to classify vegetation in the field. Each vegetation type is described clearly and vividly, with guidance on how to differentiate between similar looking communities. There are detailed sections on the ecology, conservation and management of each community, and up-to-date distribution maps.This is the outcome of many years of field work in the British uplands, much of it supported by the UK Government conservation agencies. The book will be an indispensable guide for anyone with a keen interest in the uplands, notably ecologists, land managers, lecturers, and students, as well as the many organisations actively involved in this special environment.'Using the Rodwell classification, the authors have blended in their own ecological expertise to produce - at last - an account of British upland vegetation which is readable, visual and comprehensive. Its value to nature conservation will be immense.' Dr Derek Ratcliffe, former Chief Scientist, Nature Conservancy Council'Here is an outstanding companion and rich information-source for all whose occupations and interests lead them to the uplands. It not only furnishes a clear and 'user-friendly' guide to the diversity of vegetation types, but also provides a masterly overview of the upland environment.' Professor Charles H. Gimingham, Former Regius Professor of Botany, University of AberdeenThis book is a reprint edition of ISBN-10 1-86107-553-7 (2004).…

Hardcover. Condizione: Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. 1990 OUP hardcover edition. Some reading wear else good condition. From the cover: This is the first scholarly account of the Royal Navy in the Pacific War. It concludes the late Arthur Marder's two-volume history of the Royal Navy and the Imperial Japanese Navy in the decisive years 1936-1945. Before his death, Arthur Marder completed the first six chapters, and the long-awaited second volume of this major work has been completed by Mark Jacobsen and John Horsfield. It picks up the story at the nadir of British naval fortunes - 'everywhere weak and naked', in Churchill's phrase - and follows the Royal Navy's role from 1942 to the Japanese surrender in August 1945. Marder retells the story of how Allied naval defences crumbled in the Dutch East Indies, culminating in the Battle of the Java Sea. Concentrating on the role of HMS Exeter, Marder draws upon the experiences of participants in the action to write a fresh account of the part played by Royal Navy units in the disaster. Elsewhere, the authors paint a vivid picture of the 'fighting admiral', Sir James Somerville, attempting to train his motley fleet of cast-offs into an efficient force able to safeguard trade in the Indian Ocean against Axis raiders and submarines. Meticulously researched and fully referenced, The Pacific War 1942-1945 draws on both British and Japanese sources to give us a unique account of the two navies in the Second World War which is both readable and comprehensive. It makes full use of hitherto unpublished personal accounts by participants, and emphasizes the key personalities who shaped events in these momentous years. The vivid and detailed story it tells makes fascinating reading for anyone interested in the Pacific War.…
