MacArthur and Edward O. Wilson's The Theory of Island Biogeography, first published by Princeton in 1967, is one of the most influential books on ecology and evolution to appear in the past half century. By developing a general mathematical theory to explain a crucial ecological problem--the regulation of species diversity in island populations--the book transformed the science of biogeography and ecology as a whole. In The Theory of Island Biogeography Revisited, some of today's most prominent biologists assess the continuing impact of MacArthur and Wilson's book four decades after its publication. Following an opening chapter in which Wilson reflects on island biogeography in the 1960's, fifteen chapters evaluate and demonstrate how the field has extended and confirmed--as well as challenged and modified--MacArthur and Wilson's original ideas. Providing a broad picture of the fundamental ways in which the science of island biogeography has been shaped by MacArthur and Wilson's landmark work, The Theory of Island Biogeography Revisited also points the way toward exciting future research. 606 $aBiogeography$vCongresses 606 $aIsland ecology$vCongresses 615 0$aBiogeography 615 0$aIsland ecology 676 $a578.75/2 686 $aWH 4700$2rvk 701 $aLosos$b Jonathan B$0721481 701 $aRicklefs$b Robert E$064348 701 $aMacArthur$b Robert H$064766 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910829111203321 996 $aThe theory of island biogeography revisited$94202149 997 $aUNINA
