Zustand: Very Good. xv, 853, text figs. . PB. Light creasing to spine. Vg. Second English edition. The book describes and discusses the numerical methods which are successfully being used for analysing ecological data, using a clear and comprehensive approach. These methods are derived from the fields of mathematical physics, pa…rametric and nonparametric statistics, information theory, numerical taxonomy, archaeology, psychometry, sociometry, econometry and others.
