Elton's Ecologists A History of the Bureau of Animal Population

From its creation by Charles Elton in 1932 to its demise when he retired in 1967, the Bureau of Animal Population at Oxford was a mecca for ecologists from around the world. Crowcroft provides an anecdotal history of this small research institute that so strongly influenced the development of modern animal ecology. "[This] is a very good account of the work and personal interactions of a group that played an important part in the development of animal ecology in the period 1930-60."--John Krebs, TREECrowcroft, Peter is the author of 'Elton's Ecologists A History of the Bureau of Animal Population' with ISBN 9780226121468 and ISBN 0226121461.
