"This book was a great read. I enjoyed all of the chapters and it should be part of anyone's library who is interested in issues of sampling in theory and practice." Ecology "The chapters are concise but well illustrated and the index of methods is a real bonus. Coverage is excellent and there's enough material to plan ... Read moresampling or to discuss it in a wider context. With a lot of coverage in a compact form this text would be a good addition to a field work library." Teaching Ecology Group Newsletter, January 2005 "This is a book to delve into, when you need some inspiration on how to sample insects, since a novel method might prove to be significantly superior to the one you have been using - all those rare beetles are really quite numerous. I recommend acquiring a copy for your bookshelf." The British Journal of Entomology and Natural History, March 2006 “Addressing the needs of ecologists…this text brings together ten papers dealing with specific sampling challenges. Each paper includes extensive references.” Northeastern Naturalist Show Less
