Earthworm Ecology

This informative book is the most comprehensive work on earthworm ecology currently available. Here are sixteen chapters, including two distinctly dynamic papers from the 1994 Earthworm Ecology Conference, that provide important insights into the critical balance between environment and earthworm impact. Until now, little has been done to really study the worldwide impact of the 8,000 species of earthworms. This highly-illustrated publication makes a significant contribution to the existing literature. This expansive study presents the important, and often overlooked, impact earthworms have on the environment.
