Review : The stirring . . .

Ecological sacred cows fall by the dozen in the blandly titled and very
unblandly written Global Environmental Change. In it, biologist Peter D. Moore
and colleagues argue that ecosystems are naturally dynamic and unstable. Change
is the norm, and conventional ecologists are as narrow-minded as puritan
missionaries. Raging fires, not 鈥渃limax鈥 forests, are the true symbols of
nature. A handbook for revisionists. Published by Blackwell, 拢17.95, ISBN
0 632 03638 9.
