Biological invasions are one of the major threats to our native
biodiversity. The magnitude of biodiversity losses, land
degradation and productivity losses of managed and natural
ecosystems due to invasive species is enormous. The ecological and
environmental aspects of non-native invasive plants are of great
importance to (i) understand ecological principles involved in the
management of invasives, (ii) design management strategies, (iii)
find effective management solutions for some of the worst invaders,
and (iv) frame policies and regulations. The objectives of this
book are to discuss (i) ecological approaches needed to design
effective management strategies, (ii) recent progress in management
methods and tools, (iii) success and failure of management efforts
for some of the worst invaders, and (iv) restoration and
conservation of invaded land. In an effort to achieve these
objectives, contributing authors have strived to provide up-to-date
information on the management of non-native invasives. Chapters
included in the book are peer-reviewed by international experts
working in the area. Readers will get a unique perspective on
ecological aspects of the management of invasives. The book will be
useful to graduate students, researchers, managers and policy
makers involved in the management of exotic invasives.
