Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Las especies evolucionan, cambian con el paso del tiempo y así lo pudo constatar y argumentar Charles Darwin. La que tiene entre las manos es una obra que intenta integrar dos grandes visiones de la evolución que a menudo se presentan enfrentadas. Por un lado, la visión que enfatiza la contingencia, los accidentes congelados y la irreversibilidad, y determina una ciencia eminentemente histórica. De la otra, la visión más racional, basada en la comprensión de los procesos de autorganización parecidas a los otros sistemas físicos alejados del equilibrio termodinámico, y que determina una ciencia estructuralista. El resultado es una visión más rica y plural del fenómeno evolutivo, en la cual se ponen en evidencia los paradigmas clásicos. Una revisión cuidadosa de la visión más ortodoxa de la evolución en busca de explicaciones teóricas que van más allá de los límites de la biología. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Hardback. Condition: New. Mutualistic interactions among plants and animals have played a paramount role in shaping biodiversity. Yet the majority of studies on mutualistic interactions have involved only a few species, as opposed to broader mutual connections between communities of organisms. Mutualistic Networks is the first book to comprehensively explore this burgeoning field. Integrating different approaches, from the statistical description of network structures to the development of new analytical frameworks, Jordi Bascompte and Pedro Jordano describe the architecture of these mutualistic networks and show their importance for the robustness of biodiversity and the coevolutionary process. Making a case for why we should care about mutualisms and their complex networks, this book offers a new perspective on the study and synthesis of this growing area for ecologists and evolutionary biologists. It will serve as the standard reference for all future work on mutualistic interactions in biological communities.

Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. The book has been covered in contact and there is an ownership signature on the front end paper and front paste down, else clean,solid and unmarked. xiv, 371 pages indexed. No 42 in Monographs in Population Biology edited by Simon A Levin and Henry S. Horn. " Can physics be an appropriate framework for the understanding of ecological science? Most ecologists would probably agree that there is little relation between the complexity of natural ecosystems and the simplicity of any example derived from Newtonian physics. Though ecologists have long been interested in concepts originally developed by statistical physicists and later applied to explain everything from why stock markets crash to why rivers develop particular branching patterns, applying such concepts to ecosystems has remained a challenge. Self-Organization in Complex Ecosystems is the first book to clearly synthesize what we have learned about the usefulness of tools from statistical physics in ecology. Ricard Sole and Jordi Bascompte provide a comprehensive introduction to complex systems theory, and ask: do universal laws shape the structure of ecosystems, at least at some scales? They offer the most compelling array of theoretical evidence to date of the potential of nonlinear ecological interactions to generate nonrandom, self-organized patterns at all levels.Tackling classic ecological questions--from population dynamics to biodiversity to macroevolution--the book's novel presentation of theories and data shows the power of statistical physics and complexity in ecology. Self-Organization in Complex Ecosystems will be a staple resource for years to come for ecologists interested in complex systems theory as well as mathematicians and physicists interested in ecology." (back cover) CONTENTS: Complexity in ecological systems Nonlinear dynamics Spatial self-organization: from pattern to process Scaling and fractals in ecology Habitat loss and extinction thresholds Complex ecosystems: from species to networks Complexity in macroevolution.
