Global urbanization promises better services and stronger economies but also carries risks and unforeseeable consequences. Urban Planet highlights the hopes and hindrances of our journey of urbanization and the need for a parallel evolution of our science and systems to ensure we reap the rewards. This title is also available Open Access. ‘The fast-paced urbanization of the world significantly alters our attitudes towards space, particularly the ways we comprehend and organize them. This development is unprecedented in our recent history and calls for global reflections aiming at enlightening and supporting the implementation of local policies. Such is the ambition of Urban Planet. To overcome the major challenges we are facing – particularly the ones dealing with climate and resilience – cities, such as Paris and many other cities around the globe, must understand and embrace their own complexity, so as to harness complexity to better serve the well-being of their citizens. It is by empowering the collective intelligence and sharing knowledge, that our cities will reinvent ways of living together, grounded in inclusiveness and the daily practice of democracy.’ Anne Hidalgo, Mayor of Paris ‘The authors of Urban Planet make [the] journey to the city more legible, highlighting the hopes and hindrances its brings, and the need for a parallel evolution of our science and systems if we are to reap the rewards of the great urban trek that we are now on.’ Greg Clark, CBE, Urban Innovation Centre, London

The Effective Scientist

TEXTBOOK

A Handy Guide to a Successful Academic Career Corey J. A. Bradshaw

Plant Ecology

Flinders University of South Australia

Illustrated by René Campbell Flinders University of South Australia

To be effective, today’s young scientists need to apply their research outside their specialty, but the skills needed to do this well are rarely taught at university. Written specifically for early career-scientists, this step-by-step guide will help readers develop these skills, maximising the chance of a successful and effective career. ’Choose: A) Stumble through your career, or B) Read this book and avoid our mistakes.’ William J. Sutherland, Miriam Rothschild Chair in Conservation Biology, University of Cambridge ‘With a relaxed and humorous style, Bradshaw indoctrinates the uninitiated into hard-won tricks of the trade, at times opening up to the reader about his own career missteps to illustrate a point.’ The Times Higher Education 2018 228 x 152 mm 288pp 20 b/w illus. 978-1-107-17147-3 Hardback £46.99 / US$64.99 978-1-316-62085-4 Paperback £17.99 / US$24.99 For all formats available, see

Origins, Processes, Consequences Second edition Paul A. Keddy

Now in full colour, this much-awaited new edition of the book Plants and Vegetation provides a fresh and comprehensive approach to plant ecology. Keddy’s clear and engaging text emphasises unifying underlying principles and processes, taking a global approach to the subject and engaging students in essential concepts through real-world examples. ‘Keddy’s Plant Ecology is a refreshing synthesis of the core concepts of the discipline. It is a remarkably readable book that is brimming with vivid stories about the central role of plants in the biosphere. This milestone in the canon of ecological literature pays homage to the previous generations of plant ecologists that built the field as we know it. The organisation is unconventional yet intuitive, the prose is animated yet enlightening, and the revised figures are both colourful and instructive. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to acquire a broad understanding of plant ecology.’ Daniel Laughlin, University of Waikato, New Zealand ‘In the early pages of this distinctive and engaging book, Paul A. Keddy explains the underrated foundational role of plants in the origin of life on Earth. This is followed in masterfully discerning style over several chapters by arguments and evidence in which he champions the plant ecologists who are advancing specific sets of plant functional traits as the basis of vegetation patterns and as key factors in ecosystem structure and dynamics and responses to climate and management. Finally in conclusion, Keddy identifies and reproaches Man

Ecology in Action Fred D. Singer Radford University, Virginia

This fresh approach to integrating the core concepts of ecology and research processes has a strong narrative, driven by case studies that reveal how ecologists raise and answer real-world questions. It enables students to develop a strong grasp of key topics with a deep understanding of ecology as a dynamic science.

and is likely to impress a number of instructors that have had similar previous disappointments. … Singer’s writing effectively weaves together some of ecology’s greatest hits, both classic and modern, to produce interesting, information, and insightful ecology. … [A] high-quality text, one that we are sure is likely to be adopted by numerous universities even in this competitive market. Singer’s Ecology in Action will age well, and future ecologists are undoubtedly going to look at it fondly …’ Howard Whiteman and Nancy Buschhaus, Ecology

‘This is the best ecology text I have seen to date … In 719 pages, Fred D. Singer has produced a work of incomparable excellence and detail for modern ecology … Ecology in Action is worth every penny. A must for anyone studying, teaching or researching ecology.’ Pat Sang, The Biologist ‘In the digital age, creating an effective ecology textbook has become even more challenging. Competition abounds among the numerous available texts, as well as interactive e-books. The authors of this review have been disappointed by several previous works, leading to one of us no longer teaching ecology with a hardbound text. Fred D. Singer’s Ecology in Action may change that

Species Conservation Lessons from Islands Edited by Jamieson A. Copsey IUCN Conservation Planning Specialist Group (CPSG)

Simon A. Black Durrell Institute of Conservation and Ecology, University of Kent

Jim J. Groombridge Durrell Institute of Conservation and Ecology, University of Kent

and Carl G. Jones Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust

Focusing on lessons that can be learned from islands, this book is for students and professionals interested in how we can take positive steps to save threatened species. Written by leading conservation practitioners, who share their first-hand experience, it will help readers apply management and leadership principles to biodiversity conservation. ‘Islands are special. From Darwin and Wallace through to Gerald Durrell and the editors of this volume, life on islands has fascinated and troubled biologists in equal measure. In Species Conservation: Lessons from Islands an eminent group of conservationists bring their considerable experience to bear on the full gamut of problems facing those working to conserve insular species. From outlining the peculiarities and complexities of island life through to planning, managing and monitoring for recovery, the editors and authors present a compendium of strategies and practices for all those involved in the conservation of species in these special places. We have learnt much from the study of life on islands. The guidance in this very practical volume will help ensure that the many endemic and other species characteristic of the world’s islands will survive to fascinate future generations.’ Martin Fisher, Editor-in-Chief of Oryx: The International Journal of Conservation Ecology, Biodiversity and Conservation

The Future of Phylogenetic Systematics

Series Editor: Gavin Broad

The Legacy of Willi Hennig Edited by David Williams

Natural HIstory Museum

The Systematics Association promotes all aspects of systematic biology by organising conferences and workshops on key themes in systematics, running annual lecture series, publishing books and a newsletter and awarding grants in support of systematics research. Membership of the Association is open globally to professionals and amateurs with an interest in any branch of biology, including palaeobiology. Members are entitled to attend conferences at discounted rates, to apply for grants and to receive the newsletter and mailed information; they also receive a generous discount on the purchase of all volumes produced by the Association. The first of the Systematics Association’s publications The New Systematics (1940) was a classic work edited by its then-president Sir Julian Huxley. Since then, more than seventy volumes have been published, often in rapidly expanding areas of science where a modern synthesis is required. The Association encourages researchers to organise symposia that result in multi-authored volumes. In 1997 the Association organised the first of its international biennial conferences. This and subsequent biennial conferences, which are designed to provide for systematists of all kinds, included themed symposia that resulted in further publications. The Association also publishes volumes that are not specifically linked to meetings and encourages new publications (including textbooks) in a broad range of systematics topics. More information about the Systematics Association and its publications can be found at the following website: http://www.systass.org.

Ideal for students of ecology and conservation, this volume introduces the reader to complexity-based approaches for tackling environmental challenges. Key papers assembled from the end of the twentieth century appear alongside expert commentary to give a detailed account of our current understanding, as well as how we got there. ‘Conservation is built on the foundations of ecology but it often seems that conservation uses ecology in fragmented ways – only knowing a piece of the proverbial elephant but not the whole animal. Complex Ecology is the first anthology that provides the full interconnected understanding of ecology and its implications for application. At a time when humanity is pushing the limits of planetary thresholds with climate change and an expanding footprint of impacts, Complex Ecology provides an essential compass for scientists and conservationists to navigate the shifting ecological context of conservation action. This book contains the touchstone primary sources that underpin resilience theory, conservation biology, and trophic ecology.’ Gary Tabor, The Center for Large Landscape Conservation, Montana 2018 247 x 174 mm 592pp 978-1-108-41607-8 Hardback £99.99 / US$140.00 978-1-108-40260-6 Paperback £39.99 / US$54.99 For all formats available, see

Environmental Attitudes through Time R. J. Berry University College London

This volume presents data and concepts from a broad range of disciplines that affect our life and well-being within our environment. It shows the limits but also the possibilities for action and so throws light on our present and future fate as individuals, as citizens, and as decision makers. ‘For those who think that environmentalism is a twenty-firstcentury obsession it will be a surprise to find that the burning of coal was banned in London because it was ‘prejudicial to health’ as long ago as 1273! These and a myriad of other facts litter the pages of this magisterial book which surveys

centuries of environmental concern. Professor Berry shows that there is no human activity that is environmentally neutral. Drawing on science, philosophy, ethics and theology he examines the relationship between humanity and nature. From the Earth Charter to Ecosystems, from Gaia to God he explores the shifting attitudes to caring for creation. He is one of the elders of the environmental movement with his own distinctive and influential voice. His chapter on Awe is the best bridge over which anyone could walk to survey the imaginary chasm between science and religion.’ The Right Reverend James Jones, KBE, formerly Bishop of Liverpool ‘The developments of science and conservation over time are intricately woven together in this scholarly account of human attitudes to nature. This walk through the history of interactions with the environment brings together science, politics and philosophy in a most engaging way, and offers a factual and historical account of what humans are doing to destroy or to research and preserve the natural environment from classical times to the present day. The author, a naturalist, ends by stressing a post-materialist view that recognises the awe of nature and concludes that to halt destruction an ethical and moral solution is needed. Anyone concerned about the protection of nature will gain a lot from this compendium of attitudes to the environment over time. I am sure that this book with so much information from the past will help to change attitudes to nature today.’ Sir Ghillean Prance, Former Director of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew 2018 228 x 152 mm 276pp 53 b/w illus. 3 maps 1 table 978-1-107-06232-0 Hardback £59.99 / US$79.99 978-1-107-67948-1 Paperback £24.99 / US$34.99 For all formats available, see

Issues and Concepts in Historical Ecology The Past and Future of Landscapes and Regions Edited by Carole L. Crumley Swedish Biodiversity Centre, Uppsala, Sweden

Tommy Lennartsson Swedish Biodiversity Centre, Uppsala, Sweden

and Anna Westin Swedish Biodiversity Centre, Uppsala, Sweden

This volume demonstrates historical ecology’s utility for environmental and heritage conservation communities, offering many examples of co-developed research into critical issues in our changing world. It gives funders, policy-makers, communities, and researchers a framework they can use to help construct an inclusive and resilient future for humanity. ‘Historical ecology has become a master methodology of our time, part of the new holism. This volume explains the how and the why of it. Not only does it offer a critical synthesis with relevant examples, but also a prospectus for likely future developments and applications. The authors bring a wealth of complementary experience and expertise to their task, drawing on different backgrounds to delineate a field of research that is intrinsically and necessarily multi-disciplinary and collaborative. Readers are carefully led through the theoretical connections between an assemblage of intertwined concepts of current and increasing intellectual significance – the Anthropocene and landscape domestication, complexity, memory, and local environmental knowledge, shifting baseline syndrome, biocultural diversity, niche construction, and co-evolution. Together, these have progressively undermined older ‘functionalist’ and ‘adaptionist’ assumptions about how socio-ecological systems really work in the twenty-first century.’ Roy Ellen, Centre for Biocultural Diversity, University of Kent ‘Crumley, Westin, Lennartsson, et al. have made a monumental contribution in this book to interdisciplinary studies bridging nature and society. They have made a significant advance in the framework known as historical ecology, and they show the relevance of the past to our future, by rich examples from throughout the world to illustrate the value of this framework. Drawing from anthropology, geology, archeology, ecology, paleoecology, geography, landscape, and heritage management and history, the framework addresses both local and Earth system scale dynamics.

Ants and flowering plants are dominant in most terrestrial ecosystems, and their interactions are geographically widespread. This is the first resource for undergraduate and graduate students in ecology and conservation biology devoted entirely to humaninduced global changes and their consequences for ant-plant interactions. ‘Ant-Plant Interactions is the definitive and greatly needed treatise on a subject of importance to general terrestrial ecology and the study of Earth’s dominant social insects.’ Edward O. Wilson, Harvard University, Massachusetts ‘Ants dominate terrestrial habitats worldwide, and their interactions with plants structure biodiversity within those habitats. This edited volume offers a timely, comprehensive treatment of ways in which ecologically diverse ant-plant interactions are affected by, and are responding to, human-induced changes to the landscape. Worldwide in scope and covering topics that cut across basic ecology, agriculture, and conservation, it authoritatively reviews, presents new data, and highlights critical gaps in our nascent understanding of ants’ critical roles in terrestrial ecosystems.’ Judith L.

Spatial Analysis of Coastal Environments Sarah M. Hamylton University of Wollongong, New South Wales

This book covers the spatial analytical tools needed to map, monitor and explain or predict coastal features. Presenting empirical geographical approaches using recent technological developments, while providing detailed case studies on a range of coastal environments, it is an ideal resource for undergraduates studying spatial science. ‘I wish this book had been around when I was a student! It ticks all the boxes: the primary focus on spatial analysis and interrogation of geospatial data is essential for sound, sustainable and evidence-based decision-making, and will give invaluable practical skills to students and practitioners alike; while the adoption of landscape ecology as the underpinning conceptual framework emphasises the need for joined-up, holistic and ultimately spatially-determined thinking in coastal science and management. The author shows a deep understanding of her subject matter, and her enthusiasm for, and love of, the coast stands out. Even the more complex ideas and methods are explained clearly and in an easily accessible, student-friendly manner. Although written for students of the coast, many of the concepts and methods introduced here will be readily transferrable to other areas of Earth Science specialism where geospatial expertise is needed.’ Darius Bartlett, University College Cork, Ireland ‘Spatial Analysis of Coastal Environments is a rare and overdue resource that provides a comprehensive overview as well an introduction to an array of important spatial analytical techniques and issues. Students and professionals new to coastal geographic information systems (GIS) will find the introductory coverage of data sources, mapping principles and analysis techniques easily accessible. Experienced researchers, coastal managers and planners, and instructors will take value from the coverage of advanced techniques such as geostatistics, modelling and characterising uncertainty. The book is richly and usefully illustrated with both conceptual and case study maps and graphics. I expect this book to fill an important void and, through its readers, further expand the scientific and practical application of GIS to coastal environments.’ Thomas R.

Biological Control Ecology and Applications George E. Heimpel University of Minnesota

and Nicholas J. Mills University of California, Berkeley

Foreword by Jacques Brodeur

This book enhances our understanding of biological control, the suppression of populations of pests and weeds by living organisms, combining theory and practical application. The authors cover biological control of insects, weeds, plant pathogens and vertebrate animals, and take a balanced, objective approach that explores the benefits and risks of biological control methods. ‘… biological control is placed very skilfully within the context of the ecological principles of biological invasions. The authors argue that we have now reached a point where the balance between risks and benefits of biological control is well accepted rather than contested, bringing with it new concepts and approaches to environmental risk assessment. New tools to enhance biological control success and how this can be measured; the emerging focus on conservation and natural biological control; and the growing interest in wider applications of biological control are very lucidly described. This is an inspiring book, with clearly articulated concepts, generous use of case studies and figures to illustrate arguments, and it is extensively referenced. It will prove to be an invaluable text for current and future researchers.’ Barbara Barratt, AgResearch, New Zealand ‘As ecologists and practicing biological control specialists, Heimpel and Mills bring a unique perspective to the study and practice of biological control … their analysis of the principles and practices of modern biological control is deeply rooted in fundamental invasion biology, population dynamics, and evolutionary ecology. Drawing examples and theory from ecological studies, they analyze past and current biological control practices, highlight where they conform or

deviate from ecological theory, and shed light on how practices may be improved … Aimed at advanced undergraduates, graduate students, and researchers the text is replete with examples that illuminate the rich history of biological control and its future applications. Given the multifaceted concepts that emerge from each chapter, the text would particularly lend itself to a discussion oriented – flipped classroom – approach.’ Douglas A.

Natural Enemies An Introduction to Biological Control Second edition Ann E. Hajek Cornell University, New York

and Jørgen Eilenberg University of Copenhagen

This book is for students, professionals, and anyone wishing to learn the basics of biological control. It covers strategies for controlling invertebrates and vertebrates, weeds, and plant pathogens using a diversity of agents, and it also discusses the environmental safety and sustainability of biological control. ‘This second edition of Natural Enemies has been skillfully updated to cover advances in biological control since 2004 which is sure to reinstate it as the standard introduction to the subject for undergraduates and other interested readers. Written by leading international experts, the text is both authoritative and easy to read, and is richly illustrated with fascinating examples of biological control applications from around the world. The expertise of the authors is readily apparent throughout the book and the breadth of coverage of all aspects of biological control is excellent. I highly recommend this text to anyone seeking to develop a course or workshop on the subject due to its comprehensive coverage, accessibility without need for specialist knowledge, and engaging style. It is reassuring to know that a new generation of biological control practitioners will be inspired by this well informed and enthusiastic introduction to the subject.’ Nicholas J. Mills, University of California, Berkeley ‘… The second edition retains all that was positive from the first edition – including wonderful graphs, illustrations,

and topic boxes – and adds a number of exciting updates. The section on conservation biological control is expanded, which reflects growth in this area over the last two decades. I also appreciated the updates to the last section of the book, which focuses on the evolving science of biological control. Here Hajek and Eilenberg provide a thoughtful and up-to-date discussion of the risks of biological control along with a nice sampling of risk assessment models. Also – the last chapter looks ahead at issues that the discipline will need to come to terms with including climate change, sustainability, and the continued unintentional movement of species across the globe.’ George Heimpel, University of Minnesota

The First Global Integrated Marine Assessment World Ocean Assessment I Edited by United Nations Division for Ocean Affairs and the Law of the Sea, Office of Legal Affairs

The United Nation’s First Global Integrated Marine Assessment – or World Ocean Assessment – examines the current state of knowledge of the world’s oceans and the ways in which humans benefit from and affect them. It will be invaluable for anyone involved in ocean affairs, and will also form an important reference for marine science courses. ‘Hundreds of scientists from many countries … indicate that the oceans’ carrying capacity is near or at its limit. It is clear that urgent action on a global scale is needed to protect the world’s oceans.’ Ban Ki-moon, Former Secretary-General of the United Nations, from the Foreword ‘Our oceans are an essential component to supporting life on Earth, yet their health is being hit from all sides. The First Global Integrated Marine Assessment helps us grasp the current situation and compels us to do our part in protecting this vital resource. Urgent action is needed, and this Assessment provides policy-makers with an important scientific baseline upon which to act. The report is also a great resource for students, scientists, the general public and anyone with an interest in learning more about the oceans, and what we can do – and need to do – to protect them.’ Erik Solheim, UN Environment Executive Director

Synthesising the very latest research, this comprehensive account of deep-sea fishes covers evolution, physiology and ecology as well as the history of their discovery. Priede provides a global account of both pelagic and demersal species and, crucially, considers the effect of the growing deep-sea fishing industry on sustainability.

TEXTBOOK

Colorado State University

Università degli Studi di Padova, Italy

Aimed at undergraduates and graduates in phycology, limnology and biological oceanography, this revised edition maintains its original format whilst incorporating the recent developments in the field. From the challenges and potential of producing algae biofuel to the proliferation of algal toxins, this textbook is the go-to guide on this subject.

To date, research into the evolutionary development of plants has largely focused on genetics. Minelli suggests a novel approach, integrating data from different research traditions. This is the first comprehensive book on the evolution of plant development and will be of interest to students, lecturers and researchers in the field.

Contents: Part I. Introduction; Part II. The Prokaryotic Algae; Part III. Evolution of the Chloroplast; Part IV. Evolution of One Membrane of Chloroplast Endoplasmic Reticulum; Part V.

‘An evo-devo tour de force through the flowering plants, written with the exceptional clarity that we have come to expect of Alessandro Minelli. The book encompasses long-established ideas such as heterochrony, newer approaches based on families of developmental genes, and controversial concepts such as a botanical phylotypic stage and the possible saltational evolution of floral organs. And all the topics are discussed against the background of a modern phylogenetic tree of the angiosperms. Of the many fascinating evo-devo phenomena discussed, two of my favourites are the evolutionary reduction in complexity in parasitic plants that have completely lost the ability to photosynthesize, and developmental reversals of floral symmetry, for example from zygomorphic to actinomorphic and back again. This is a scholarly work with considerable attention to detail, yet at the same time it is immensely readable.’ Wallace Arthur, Emeritus Professor of Zoology, National University of Ireland, Galway 2018 228 x 152 mm 468pp 978-1-107-03492-1 Hardback £64.99 / US$84.99 For all formats available, see

The third edition of this definitive book presents the latest insights on the patterns and processes that shaped the vegetation of Australia. With new chapters and a contemporary team of authors, this authoritative book will inspire a new generation of readers to learn and explore first-hand the vegetation of Australia. ‘This book is a landmark of Australian science. It is one of the fundamental elements on which research, planning and policy development are built. David A. Keith leads a group of Australia’s foremost plant ecologists to produce the new edition. It is an outstanding achievement. It provides a clarity of writing and level of scientific rigour that equals or exceeds any equivalent endeavour internationally. Part I explains the origins of and the forces acting on the Australian vegetation. Part II describes the sixteen primary vegetation types and subtypes, and includes their

interactions, conservation challenges and practical management. Quite simply, this is a great book.’ Mark Burgman, Imperial College London ‘The first two editions of Australian Vegetation, edited by Richard Groves, were valuable resources for anyone requiring an overview of Australia’s plant cover, and foundation references for many undergraduate courses. For the third edition the editorial baton has passed to David A. Keith, who has assembled a large cast of authors, all well-known experts in their fields … the volume has grown, but necessarily so, to incorporate the great increase in knowledge over the last three decades, and also the change in the predominant paradigm underlying present approaches to conservation and land management … The book is a tour de force, and will become the essential text for anyone interested in Australia’s vegetation.

and S. Max Walters University of Cambridge Botanic Garden

The long-awaited fourth edition of a classic text, which considers the implications of new advances and challenges in our understanding of the evolution of flowering plants. It has been fully revised for the molecular era, and will continue to be an authoritative resource for students in the field. Review of previous edition: ‘… one of the classics of plant evolutionary biology … Briggs and Walters has mentored students for over four decades and is as balanced and relevant today as it was in 1969 when the first edition was released.’ Tan Bao, Plant Science Bulletin ‘This has been one of my favourite books for a very long time and I still have my cherished, if tattered, copy of the first edition of 1969. The book has grown with the science it describes, but it remains true to the original aim with thoughtful explanations and clear writing. Its greatest gift to the readers is the understanding it provides of how scientific knowledge develops through observation, experiment, analysis and the hard work of insight.

Writing in the Environmental Sciences A Seven-Step Guide L. Michelle Baker

Written for environmental scientists and conservation professionals, this guide enables scientists to translate their research into effective communications, ranging from policy and regulatory documents to grant proposals. Baker sets out a replicable seven-step writing formula, supported throughout by practical examples, strategies, and diagrams. ‘For scientists wishing to write persuasively and in their own voices, L. Michelle Baker’s Writing in the Environmental Sciences is an essential read. This seven-step guide is as well-written as it is instructive. It explains the writing process in both a welcome and digestible way. Baker includes plenty of examples and writing tips to illustrate the major concepts, which when employed, yield clear and concise writing. That is critically important when distilling scientific method and results, and even more so when explaining the underlying assumptions and limitations. Likewise, when applying science in a regulatory or decision-making context, Her thoughtful approach helps in crafting influential arguments. For those seeking to make science relevant, interesting, and compelling, Writing in the Environmental Sciences is the hammer in the conservation tool box.’ David Rothstein, Environmental Attorney, Wildlife Biologist and Conservation Educator ‘L. Michelle Baker’s Writing in the Environmental Sciences is a clear, thoughtful, and comprehensive guide to a kind of writing that is both necessary and daunting. The author understands that writing takes place in larger contexts of institutional and disciplinary expectations, and she lays out a step-by-step guide to writing effectively within these contexts. This book covers all of the bases. It shows writers how to be clearer, more concise, and more persuasive. And it includes plentiful examples of what good writing looks like.’ Michael Austin, Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs, University of Evansville, Indiana 2017 228 x 152 mm 304pp 978-1-107-19314-7 Hardback £63.99 / US$79.99 978-1-316-64356-3 Paperback £24.99 / US$32.99 For all formats available, see

Successful Careers beyond the Lab Edited by David J. Bennett St Edmund’s College, Cambridge

and Richard C. Jennings University of Cambridge

This book provides an invaluable resource for undergraduate, postgraduate and early-career scientists on the wide range of alternative careers available. It brings together entertaining personal accounts from experienced role models and readable summaries of possible pathways, the skills required and the working lifestyles of careers from business and the media to government, and beyond. ‘This excellent book is directed at those for whom a conventional academic and research career is not necessarily their cup of tea. In it, you can learn how many other opportunities there are for scientists outside the usual academic route. The book is full of first-rate practical advice, emphasising the value of a self-assessment of your skills and interests, and illustrating that there is a major demand for people with training in science in many areas ranging from entrepreneurship and policy to PR and politics. Above all, do something you enjoy and believe is worthwhile, and do not consider yourself a failure because you have not continued in academic research.’ Sir Walter Bodmer, , Weatherall Institute of Molecular Medicine, Oxford ‘The enthusiastic and positive accounts in this book provide ample evidence that there is life beyond the lab, and that it can be a good life: rewarding, fulfilling and richly varied. To take that decision to go where the grass might be greener requires careful thought and the application of your best research skills – to research your own future. This book provides one major source of information, advice and a great range of personal words of guidance to help inform your next step.’ Gordon Chesterman, University of Cambridge Careers Service

How to Write and Publish a Scientific Paper Eighth edition Barbara Gastel Texas A & M University

and Robert A. Day University of Delaware

An essential guide for succeeding in today’s competitive environment, this book provides beginning scientists and experienced researchers alike with practical advice on writing about their work and getting published. This new, updated edition guides readers through the processes involved in publishing for scientific journals. ‘The evolution of digital publishing has revolutionized the scientific publishing landscape, which made a new revised edition necessary (the previous one is from 2011). New items are, for example, the ORCID (that is a unique digital identifier distinguishing an author from any other researcher), the archiving of your (published) paper, warnings against predatory journals, and digital poster presentations. There is also a new chapter on editing your own work before publishing … The intended readership is obviously the community of students who did not publish before, so the whole process is explained including the selection of a journal, submitting your paper, the refereeing, and how to react to it, and finally the post-refereeing stage of proofreading and publishing. … Also how to write a book review, give an interview, or write a book proposal. And for the really ambitious, how to become a science communicator.’ Adhemar Bultheel, European Mathematical Society

Contents: Part I. Some Preliminaries; Part II. Preparing the Text; Part III. Preparing the Tables and Figures; Part IV. Publishing the Paper; Part V. Doing Other Writing for Publication; Part VI.

Professional Development TEXTBOOK

Statistics Explained An Introductory Guide for Life Scientists Second edition Steve McKillup Central Queensland University

This Guide uses a clear and encouraging reader-friendly approach to help students improve their confidence in designing experiments and choosing appropriate statistical tests. Even complex topics are explained clearly, using a pictorial approach with a minimum of formulae and terminology. End-of-chapter exercises, new to this edition, allow self-testing. ‘Every so often, a researcher or teacher comes across a book and exclaims ‘I wish I had had a book like this when I started!’ … Statistics Explained is such a book. Steve McKillup writes with empathy for students’ anxiety about statistics. He replaces complex-looking formulae with graphics and realistic examples. He is a biologist writing for fellow-biologists … [The book] explains why the statistical test is needed before describing the test. Essential features of good survey and experimental design are clearly outlined … This is not ‘just another biostatistics textbook’. Its sheer readability will restore confidence to the most anxious student while experienced researchers will savour the clarity of the explanations of the common univariate and multivariate analyses … an ideal core text for anyone teaching or studying biostatistics …’ Andrew Boulton, University of New England, Australia ‘It is remarkable that, after the appearance of many statistics textbooks and statistics computer packages over the years, finally someone has produced a succinct and accessible text that takes a common-sense and appealing approach to the basics of statistical analysis. Complementing Steve McKillup’s remarkably lucid explanations

is a format which sings pleasingly with clarity. The book progresses in logical fashion through the variety of statistical tests and gives the reader a sound background in the process without the common dizzying confusion. The narrative style and informative approach has made my copy a much-travelled item from my bookshelf to the shores of both undergraduate confusion and postgraduate clarification. However, I always make sure it comes back because it is a valued item in my biology toolkit.’ Michael Kokkinn, University of South Australia 2011 228 x 152 mm 420pp 199 b/w illus. 102 tables 51 exercises 978-1-107-00551-8 Hardback £72.99 / US$122.00 978-0-521-18328-4 Paperback £29.99 / US$37.99 For all formats available, see

primate syndrome, reflecting the unusual disperser guild on the island. Of the 20 frugivorous lemur species, 16 are currently threatened with extinction. The disappearance of any of these species would significantly alter the vegetation dynamics of Madagascar’s ecosystems. For further details, see pp. 418–426. (Photograph © Wolfgang Stuppy).
