“This book is an excellent text for the practicing GISprofessional and for anyone who wants to knowboth the theoretical as well as practical underpin-nings of cartography.”

—Jack Dangermond, Esri President

“Ms. Peterson provides easy-to-understand, detailedguidance on creating effective mapped communica-tions. … an excellent resource for geo-professionalsand early career mapmakers alike. … significantlycontributes to better communications between map-makers and the decision makers and consumers whoneed to understand phenomena being mapped. Ihighly recommend it to readers who want to tell thestory of their studies in maps and don’t want limita-tions in design to detract from their important ana-lytical message.”

—J. Edward Pickle, Chief Executive Officer, Boundless

“Gretchen Peterson demystifies successful carto-graphic communication. She reveals that it is nottalent or templates that make great maps; it is theinsightful coordination of each graphic element. Inuser-friendly language, Peterson presents insightthat cartographers and GIS professionals—at all lev-els—can use to improve the quality of the work.”

—Dave Imus, Imus Geographics

This bestseller focuses on the elements of gooddesign, what makes a good map, and how to getthere. Copiously illustrated, the second editionexplores novel concepts that kick-start your students’pursuit of map-making excellence. An instructor’smanual and lecture slides are available upon qualify-ing course adoption.

Science andTechnology ofOrganic FarmingAllen V. BarkerUniversity of Massachusetts,Amherst, USA

“This impressive bookuntangles the complicatedand sometimes confusingsubject of organic farming.… Chapters devoted to indi-vidual soil nutrients are nota repetition of those in other soil science books;instead, the author relates nutrient availability toorganic practices. Perhaps the most valuable chap-ters present informed practices of composting, greenmanure management, companion planting, properliming, and the correct use of mulches … Barker usesscientific thought to support his methods, rare inmany of today’s trendy treatises … Highly recom-mended.”

Praise for the First Edition:

‘Ecological economics is arguably the single mostimportant academic discipline today. Indeed, one ofthe most cheering events in the last decade or so hasbeen the increasing cooperation of ecologists andeconomists, and the gradual reintegration of theirdisciplines. An Introduction to EcologicalEconomics provides students with the results of thatcooperation, giving an excellent overview of ecolog-ical economics today.”

—Paul R. Ehrlich, Bing Professor of Population Studies,Stanford University

“What a splendid overview of what will likely proveto be one of the most vital of all disciplines in thenew millennium. Contrary to much conventionaleconomics, the authors demonstrate—with splendidélan and massive documentation—that the globaleconomy is a wholly owned subsidiary of the plane-tary ecosystem. I have just one basic reaction: righton, write on.”

—Norman Myers, Green College, Oxford University, andSenior Fellow, World Wildlife Fund

This completely revised and updated second editionintegrates the study and management of ecologicaland economic needs, sustaining both “nature’shousehold” and “humankind’s household.” Writtenby five of the leading figures in the field, it provides aunified understanding of natural and human-domi-nated ecosystems and reintegrates market economicswithin the limits posed by the biophysical world. Thisnew edition adds a series of boxes to expand andupdate information in the current text and addressesforefront topics such as the historical development ofeconomics and ecology and motivation for incorpo-rating humans into ecosystems.

• Provides a unified understanding of natural andhuman-dominated ecosystems

• Represents perhaps the only route to a sustain-able future

• Reintegrates market economics with the limits ofthe biophysical world
