Octavo, paperback,324 pp.,colour photographs, black and white photographs, maps. Islands capture the human imagination as remote, vulnerable and exotic, yet there is comparatively little understanding of their basic geology, geography, or the impact of island colonization by plants, animals and humans. This detailed study of island environments focuses on nine island groups, including Hawaii, New Zealand and the British Isles, exploring the differences in geology, geography, climate and soils, as well as the varying effects of human interactions.
