"The core of the book is an attack on prevailing paradigma of invasion biology.... [T]he book contains many new points of view, and stimulating ideas, and I recommend it for reading not only to specialists but also to general biologists." --J. Krekule, 2003. Book Review. Photosynthetica, 41 (3):348.
