Paperback: 451 pages Publisher: Princeton University Press; 2nd, Revised edition August 16, 1999 Language: English ISBN-10: 0691009740 ISBN-13: 978-0691009742 Product Dimensions: 8.8 x 6 x 1.2 inches Shipping Weight: 1.5 pounds *Product Review* A second revised edition of John Kricher's well-received 1989 text, A Neotropical Companion distills whole libraries of information on the Americas' tropics. Kricher explores the workings of a rainforest with admirable clarity, discussing matters such as regeneration pathways and ecological succession. He also takes a sidelong glance at current issues in evolutionary theory, using his deep knowledge of the tropics to add to the literature on speciation and various hypotheses surrounding it. Ethnobotanists in particular will want to have a look at Kricher's catalog of tropical medicinal plants, in which lie the promise of cures and reliefs for a host of modern illnesses. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. *Product Review* An intense and lively field guide. . .compact and richly substantive -- Review
