Reviews

"This book serves as an excellent springboard for those ready to explore the seemingly fascinating field of smoke-related seed germination, ecology, evolutionary and physiology." --Chicago Botanical Garden
"[S]cientists interested in smoke-related seed germination and the ecological, evolutionary, and physiological response of plants to smoke will likely find this book very useful. ... Ecology of Plant Derived Smoke can provide a practical guide for those interested in a species-based approach to conservation and land management in fire-adapted ecosystems." --Ecology
