"May I congratulate [Cox and Moore] in once again, making a subject that requires of the student a certain breadth of experience and a willingness to embrace many disciplines, attractive appealing and accessible...this publication will continue to be the authoritative and highly acclaimed text for students of biogeography" Dr Malcolm Greenwood, Loughborough University, UK "This is a great compendium of the science of Biogeography, broad but full of details...with new references and good coverage of recent breakthroughs. Its well-balanced coverage of most major biomes, including marine systems, really stand out"Professor George Robinson, SUNY at Albany, US "The latest edition of Biogeography is an excellent overview of the history of biogeography and related sciences and how this has culminated in the latest advances in biogeography."
