| Our Natural History: The Lessons of Lewis and Clark
Daniel B. Botkin Softcover, Oxford University Press, USA (April 16, 2004) When it comes to nature and to understanding environmental issues, those who do not measure do not know. We live in the scientific and information age and think we are drowning in data and that therefore we know what we need to know. But when it comes to environment — especially living things we care about in the environment — this is not true. |

| STRANGE ENCOUNTERS: Adventures of a Renegade Naturalist
Daniel B. Botkin Softcover, Tarcher/Penguin (September 15, 2003) How many hours does a whale sleep? How many leaves are on a tree? Is it okay to let your dog drink from the toilet? In this delightful book, these seemingly simple, almost childlike questions lead to a series of rich meditations on science, nature, and human nature. |

| Discordant Harmonies: A New Ecology for the 21st Century
Daniel B. Botkin Softcover, Oxford University Press, USA; (March 11, 1992) The New York Times wrote that this book “is considered by many ecologists to be the classic text of the [environmental] movement.” It is about the idea of nature, and makes the point that our ideas about nature are 4,000 years old, dominated by the ancient myth of the Balance of Nature. Even our “scientific” approaches to understanding nature and solving environmental problems are based on this belief, rather than on scientific fact. |

| Forest Dynamics: An Ecological Model
Daniel B. Botkin Hardcover, Oxford University Press, USA (February 11, 1993) Over the past two decades, the author has developed and refined an extremely useful simulation model of forest growth. The JABOWA model was the first successful application of digital computer simulation to a complex natural ecosystem. Effects of global warming, acid rain, and commercial forest harvesting practices have been analyzed with this model. Offering a fresh perspective on ecological phenomena, Forest Dynamics provides all the information necessary to understand and use the model. Please visit our JABOWA page for more information on using the modeling software. |
