Notes:"This volume is derived from the Annual Symposium of the British Ecological Society on 'Speciation and Ecology' which was held at the University of Sheffield, 28-30 March 2007"--Preface
Includes bibliographical references and index.
Summary:"Bringing together the viewpoints of leading ecologists concerned with the processes that generate patterns of diversity, and evolutionary biologists who focus on mechanisms of speciation, this book opens up discussion in order to broaden understanding of how speciation affects patterns of biological diversity, especially the uneven distribution of diversity across time, space and taxa studied by macroecologists. Written for graduate students and academic researchers, the book promotes a more complete understanding of the interaction between mechanisms and rates of speciation and these patterns in biological diversity."--Jacket
