Book Summary
Guana, in the British Virgin Islands, is home to a remarkably diverse assortment
of animal and plant life: mangroves, flamingos, iguanas, frogs, birds, snakes,
spiders, tortoises, grasshoppers, and bats, to name but a few. What is so
surprising about Guana's astonishing panoply is that, according to prevailing
ecological theories, the island's diversity should be much lower than it
actually is. This provocative book describes Guana's flora and fauna against the
backdrop of islands worldwide and their ecology, evolution, and conservation.
Much more than a book about one island, it raises important challenges to
prevailing dogma of island biogeography and theoretical ecology. James (Skip)
Lazell demonstrates that meaningful conservation
