Kritik
"Her new book is considerably more than an update, but the update alone would make it a valuable contribution. ... The summary of much molecular genetic research assembled in one book would alone make Invasive Predators a fascinating read, with studies elucidating many aspects of virtually every invasion. ... Invasive Predators in New Zealand is an interesting book for any invasion biologist, even those with substantial knowledge of the topic." (Daniel Simberloff, Biological Invasions, Vol. 23, 2021)mehr
