This is a wonderful book that many will justifiably recommend for undergraduate and early postgraduate students interested in the integrated management of freshwaters; the new edition will not disappoint, it is a thorough
overhaul and substantial improvement on an already established and useful text book. (J Paleolimnol, 5
October 2011)
This new edition of the textbook provides a comprehensive and stimulating introduction to rivers, lakes and wetlands. It was written as the basis for a complete course on freshwater ecology and hence is accessible to undergraduate and early postgraduate students. Its strongest feature is the promotion of an integrated approach to freshwater systems and science. (Austral Ecology, 1 November 2012)
"[This book] is excellent for broadening the understanding of readers with some prior knowledge." ( CHOICE, January 2011)"About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.
