BURDICK, Alan
Out of Eden. An Odyssey of Ecological Invasion
NY, Farrar, Straus, Giroux, (2005). An examination of human travel (with stowaways) posing a growing threat to ecological diversity: invasive species of plants and animals frequently travel with humans to areas where they are previously unknown, have no natural predators, and out-compete native flora and fauna. Warmly inscribed by the author in the year of publication. Fine in a fine dust jacket, with blurbs by Malcolm Gladwell and Alan Lightman.
