✦ Synopsis


`... this text is certainly one of the best, and it complements the others currently available.'
Ecology
` ... The authors succeed in their goal of bringing together familiar and unfamiliar techniques in a way that is valuable to both ecologists and statisticians. The strengths of the book are the diversity of techniques and strong emphasis on graphics. In this book, statisticians will find clear descriptions of ecological analyses and ecologists will find a wealth of useful ideas.'
American Scientist
`..valuable for everybody interested in multivariate techniques and their application to community studies..'
Acta Botanica Hungarica
