Reviews

'... most timely and laudable ... as a review of weed population ecology, it is very valuable ... understandable and insightful ... Cousens and Mortimer have provided a springboard for fresh thinking.' Nicholas Jordan, Trends in Ecology and Evolution '... stimulating and of value'. R. W. Snaydon, Journal of Agricultural Science
