Ethic and Engagement -- Chapter 17. Where Their Spirit Lives On -- The shack and the lab -- Notes -- IndexAldo Leopold and Ed Ricketts are giants in the history of environmental awareness. They were born ten years and only about 200 miles apart and died within weeks of each other in 1948. Yet they never met and they didn't read each other's work. This illuminating book reveals the full extent of their profound and parallel influence both on science and our perception of natural world today. In a lively comparison, Michael J. Lannoo shows how deeply these two ecological luminaries influenced the emergence both of environmentalism and conservation biology. In particular, he looks closely at how they each derived their ideas about the possible future of humanity based on their understanding of natural communities. Leopold and Ricketts both believed that humans cannot place themselves above earth's ecosystems and continue to survive. In light of climate change, invasive species, and collapsing ecosystems, their most important shared idea emerges as a powerful key to the future.EnvironmentalismUnited StatesHistoryNatural historyUnited StatesHistoryEcologyUnited StatesHistory20th century.aldo leopold.biography.climate change.collapsing ecosystems.conservation biology.discussion books.easy to read.ecologists.ecology.ecosystems.ed ricketts.environmentalism.famous scientists.historical scientists.history of environmentalism.invasive species.natural communities.natural science.natural world.naturalism.nonfiction.related work.retrospective.science majors.science.scientists.students and teachers.EnvironmentalismHistory.Natural historyHistory.EcologyHistory.333.72092/2Lannoo Michael J1467822MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910784956103321Leopold's shack and Ricketts's lab3765232UNINA03587nam 22006494a 450 991044633570332120200520144314.01-280-73594-597866107359451-84593-106-8(CKB)1000000000337504(EBL)289683(OCoLC)228144281(SSID)ssj0000153996(PQKBManifestationID)11148445(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000153996(PQKBWorkID)10427180(PQKB)11707625(MiAaPQ)EBC289683(Au-PeEL)EBL289683(CaPaEBR)ebr10157969(CaONFJC)MIL73594(EXLCZ)99100000000033750420051104d2006 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrFeeding in domestic vertebrates from structure to behaviour /edited by V.

The first few chapters cover feeding structures and mechanisms in birds and mammals. The rest of the book then presents chapters on feeding behavior in particular species. The scope is wide, covering not only ruminants and pigs, but also more specifically horses, rabbits and ostrich.
