Textbook with a synthetic treatment of contemporary landscape ecology, geared toward ecologists and graduate students. Places an emphasis on the interaction between spatial pattern and ecological process.
Was required to read and wouldn't suggest reading for any other reason, well, unless you're a total landscape ecology nerd, then you would probably really enjoy it.
While this book gives a nice overview of landscape ecology as a discipline, I feel as though it did little to inform how to apply the principles it espoused on a practical level.
