Climate Change Biology

by Lee Hannah

Climate Change Biology is a new textbook which examines this emerging discipline of human-induced climate change and the resulting shifts in the distributions of species and the timing of biological events. The text focuses on understanding the impacts of human-induced climate change, but draws on multiple lines of evidence, including paleoecology, modelling and current observation. Climate Change Biology lays out the scope and depth of understanding of this new discipline in terms that are accessible to students, managers and professional biologists.

3.5 Stars. I really wanted to read about how climate effects biology, and this is def the book for that. The first several chapters were perfect, as they add in a lot of new info which I didn't know, and discuss biology as well as chemistry. But then it begins to go downhill. The information becomes over repetitive. I was snoozing as I was fighting to finish some of the chapters. The end is worth reading though. This book could have been shortened by at least 50 pages in my opinion.
