Ecology, the Ascendent Perspective - Complexity in Ecological Systems
Robert Ulanowicz
Presents a paradigm to measure the developmental status of various living communities. This book aims to set forth a theoretical framework for ecology. It demonstrates that mechanical models fail to explain the mix of order and disorder that characterizes larger systems. It suggests ways to bring ecology from the fringes to the center of science.
