Nature's Keepers by Stephen Budiansky

Ecological science has begun to make sense of the baffling paradoxes of natural systems, finding the answers in a "mathematical ecology" - the mathematical relationships that link all creatures and plants in a natural community. This book introduces and examines this theory, aiming to bring to a general audience an understanding and appreciation of wildlife, as well as the means to make sense of and assess the steps society is taking to manage, preserve and protect species whose fate is increasingly in our hands.
Formerly Washington editor of the journal Nature, Stephen Budiansky is a senior writer at US News & World Report, where he writes about science, the environment and current affairs. He lives with his wife and two children on a small farm in Virginia.
