Lockwood, Julie, L., Martha F. Hoopes, and Michael P. Marchetti. 2006. Invasion Ecology. Blackwell.

If you or your institution subscribes to the Times Higher Education Supplement you can read my review in the May textbook guide. If not, please email me for a pdf. The bottom line: Summarizing the field of invasion ecology is a difficult task. Species invasions are a hot topic in agriculture, conservation, marine biology, and basic research and each area has evolved its own somewhat idiosyncratic literature. This book is a good but not great attempt to succinctly and accessibly summarize this complicated literature.
