Go to Book
"This book seems to be a potential as a reference of some cornerstones to carry over this ecosystem to the next ages. It has a wide angled perspective of environmental aspects comprising salinity, harmful effects to living cell, xenobiotics, abiotic and biotic impacts. I strongly recommend the book to the academicians and researchers willing to contribute to the particular branch of environmental science.” - Reviewed by Bahri Basaran, Dr., Professor, EGE University, Department of Leather Engineering, Turkey

This book provides readers an in-depth knowledge on important topics related to anthropogenic activities that can degrade and affect terrestrial, aquatic and human health. I highly recommend the book to the academic and professional audience who are interested in conserving the ecosytems health and sustainability. I am also confident that the book can be used as training manual in environment related training programs." - Mekonnen Hailemariam, Professor, College of Veterinary Medicine and Agriculture-Addis Ababa University/ & Value Addition Expert - COMESA/Leather and Leather Products Institute

"Plants can be found in many of the harshest environments on the planet. What strategies do they use to survive, indeed thrive, in these habitats? How did they adapt to these habitats in the first place? How can these extremophile plants (and the genes they contain) be exploited for phytoremediation and for the crop adaptation to extreme environments? Plant Ecology and Evolution in Harsh Environments addresses these questions and many others, and will be a key reference for students and researchers studying the biology of extremophile plants.” - Reviewed by Loren H. Rieseberg, Professor of Biology, Department of Botany, The University of British Columbia, Canada

"This beautifully conceived and timely book brings together the latest findings on the adaptations, diversification, assembly, and conservation of botanical life in extreme terrestrial habitats. The fascinating and highly integrative contributions here from leading evolutionary biologists and ecologists span a much wider diversity of harsh ecological settings, groups of ‘organisms, and research approaches than previously considered together. Readers will be inspired by this holistic treatment of life on the edge in a time of rapid global change." - Reviewed by Bruce G. Baldwin, W. L. Jepson Professor and Curator, Jepson Herbarium and Integrative Biology, University of California, Berkeley, California USA

“Extreme environments help us understand the “rules” of ecology and evolution by observing these rules being pushed to their limits. With its coverage of classic and cutting-edge approaches and questions, and a wide range of taxa and world regions, this book will do much to keep the study of extreme environments vigorous and exciting.” - Reviewed by Susan P. Harrison, Professor, Department of Environmental Science and Policy, University of California, Davis, California, USA
