Conservation Biology and Landscape Ecology: Spreadsheet Exercises

Arguing that constructing one's own spreadsheets from scratch teaches about all aspects of modeling, the authors of this textbook (for undergraduate courses in ecology, evolution, or conservation biology) present information on using a spreadsheet program to build biological models. After an introduction to basic concepts of spreadsheets and statistics, 30 exercises are presented with instructions and follow-up questions. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
