Ecology The Experimental Analysis Distribution Abundance Charles J. Krebs 1972

This is the original 1972 first edition of Ecology by Charles J. Krebs — arguably the single most influential ecology textbook ever written. It completely transformed the teaching and practice of ecology by shifting the focus from description to experimental hypothesis testing, and is still cited, referenced and collected worldwide today.
