Thomas and Packham provide a concise account of the structure of woodlands and forests. Using examples from around the world -from polar treelines to savannas to tropical rain forests - the authors explain the structure of the soil and the hidden world of the roots and how the main groups of organisms that live within them intereact both positively and negatively. This clear, non-technical text will be of interest to undergraduates, foresters, ecologists and land managers.
