The Fragmented Forest by Larry Harris

In this poineering application of island biogeography theory, Harris presents an alternative to current practices of timber harvesting. "Harris pulls together many threads of biological thinking about islands and their effect on plant and animal survival and evolution. He weaves these threads into a model for managing forest lands in a manner that might serve both our short-term economic and social needs as well as what some people feel is our ancient charge to be steward of all parts of creation."--American Forests Winner of the 1986 Wildlife Society Publication Award

Larry Harris holds the Fred V. Keenan Chair in Finance at the University of Southern California Marshall School of Business. His introductory text on the economics of trading, Trading and Exchanges: Market Microstructure for Practitioners (Oxford University Press: 2003), is widely regarded as
required reading for entrants into the securities industry. In July 2002, Professor Harris was appointed Chief Economist of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, where he served until June 2004.
