Humans have moved organisms around the world for centuries but it
is only relatively recently that invasion ecology has grown into a
mainstream research field. This book examines both the spread and
impact dynamics of invasive species, placing the science of
invasion biology on a new, more rigorous, theoretical footing, and
proposing a concept of adaptive networks as the foundation for
future research. Biological invasions are considered not as simple
actions of invaders and reactions of invaded ecosystems, but as
co-evolving complex adaptive systems with emergent features of
network complexity and invasibility. Invasion Dynamics focuses on
the ecology of invasive species and their impacts in recipient
social-ecological systems. It discusses not only key advances and
challenges within the traditional domain of invasion ecology, but
introduces approaches, concepts, and insights from many other
disciplines such as complexity science, systems science, and
ecology more broadly. It will be of great value to invasion
biologists analyzing spread and/or impact dynamics as well as other
ecologists interested in spread processes or habitat management.
