The first edition (1996) was written at a time when few published materials on ecosystem geography were available, and none of these had systematically elaborated the principles underlying the mapping of ecosystems in a form accessible to advanced students and practitioners

This second edition builds on the strengths of its predecessor, is updated, clarifies concepts that some reviewers have experienced difficulty in understanding, and contains new sections

: em Geography a carefully compiled benchmark reference with an exhaustive bibliography on the state-of-the-art of ecosystem classification and its bearing on resource management.” (Journal of Forestry)“I would recommend this book to those with serious interest in physical geography—a good resource for those who teach physical geography.” (Journal of Geography)“The new ‘ecosystem management’ demands an understanding of ecosystems and the relationships between them. In short, it requires a sound geographical knowledge of ecosystems. Ecosystem Geography lays a firm foundation for such knowledge.” (Progress in Physical Geography)“The book is essential reading for ecologists and natural area managers interested in ecosystem management and understanding how their landscapes fit into the larger picture regionally, continentally, and globally.” (Natural Areas Journal)
