Inhaltsangabe

Containing contributions from leading proponents of differing methods within biogeography, this book defines the differing, sometimes conflicting, perspectives in the field and their methodological approaches. This gives readers the opportunity to re-focus on a range of issues including the role of biological processes such as vicariance, dispersal and extinction in biogeographical explanation, the possibility of biogeographical pattern, the role of geological reconstructions in biogeographic explanation, as well as the relationship between biogeography and other disciplines. The book also explores the discipline's current relationship with other disciplines and discusses potential developments.
