Despite having a very rich heritage of biodiversity India is facing large scale depletion of the forest cover. Anthropogenic activity felling of trees rapid industrialisation urbanisation habitat destruction and pollution are also leading many of the plant and animal species to extinction and putting some species on the verge of extinction. Similar pattern of destruction of habitat and over exploitation of natural resources are causing depletion of biodiversity in the country as a whole. This book attempts to highlight the problems and different issues relating to biodiversity. It suggests remedial measures in general and for the North East region in particular. The researches being carried out on the subject have been focused and adequately highlighted. The articles contributed by the established scholars present a fairly comprehensive account of the biodiversity related problems in India and their conservational/remedial measures. The book should be of immense use to students teachers scientists professionals policy makers and intellectuals in dealing with the problems related to environment and biodiversity conservation. 234 pp. …

This book is designed to meet the needs of students who enroll for ecology and environmental science. A vast literature on this subject is available but this book is a single volume discussion covering all the aspects of ecology and environment. This book is a current and comprehensive yet not encyclopedic intended for an introductory audience. Much effort has taken to provide all possible information and the subject is discussed in multiple angles to cater the diverse interests of the reader. This book is divided into eleven chapters covering ecology ecosystem bio diversity spheres of earth environmental pollution wastes management environmental laws impact assessment environmental agencies and environmental organization. Needless to say this book would be highly useful to the under graduate and post graduate students of science subject. University faculty dealing with ecology and environmental pollution would find this book as an invaluable reference book. In fact this book is not only meant for students and teachers but also for the people who are very much concerned with the well being of our environment. The pictorial representations in this book are not just concerned with the related subject but provide extra information associated with particular subject in providing supplementary knowledge and hence increasing the knowledge by leaps and bounds. Though it is not possible to include the pictures for each and every terms associated with ecology and environment but effort has been made to include the pictures which are more relevant to the subject and will help in understanding the subject. The photos were carefully selected to add realism to the subject and to increase the interest of the reader. Since student use of the text was one of our primary concerns we made a concentrated effort to write a book that is highly usable to understand the basic and fundamental concepts of ecology and environment. To achieve this goal the book is written concisely and well illustrated. Important terms are printed in boldface type within the body of the text and a glossary is included at the end of the text for easy reference. 288 pp. …

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Language: English. ABOUT THE BOOK: Readings in Ecology and Environmental Science: The book contains six chapters with 23 selected papers on contemporary ecological and environmental issues. Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 include nine papers dealing with Environmental Education, Ecosystem Analysis and Biodiversity, both above ground and below ground and their utility for mankind. Chapter 3 and 4 include eight papers dealing with food security, global warming and climate change issues with up to date knowledge, which are considered as biggest challenge to mankind. Chapter 5 and 6 include six papers on Environmental pollution issues, the greatest challenge for scientists and technologists to abate it, and on Scientific Temper, which is very important for inculcation in our society. This book will provide resource materials to college and university students in the disciplines of Environmental Science, Life Science, Botany, Zoology, Geography and Social Sciences and it will be refreshing for the general public to read the papers, written in popular science language.
