following areas in unprecedented breadth and depth: - Molecular ecophysiology (stress
physiology: light  temperature  oxygen deficiency  drought  salt  heavy metals  xenobiotica and
biotic stress factors)- Autecology (whole plant ecology: thermal balance  water  nutrient 
carbon relations)- Ecosystem ecology (plants as part of ecosystems  element cycles 
biodiversity)- Synecology (development of vegetation in time and space  interactions between
vegetation and the abiotic and biotic environment)- Global aspects of plant ecology (global
change  global biogeochemical cycles  land use  international conventions  socio-economic
interactions) The book is carefully structured and well written: complex issues are elegantly
presented and easily understandable. It contains more than 500 photographs and drawings  mostly
in colour  illustrating the fascinating subject.The book is primarily aimed at graduate
students of biology but will also be of interest to post-graduate students and researchers in
botany  geosciences and landscape ecology. Further  it provides a sound basis for those dealing
with agriculture  forestry  land use  and landscape management.
