- More about The Game of Species: An Introduction to Biodiversity
Why is life so diverse? Why are there so many different species? This book explores the origins of biodiversity, its evolution and its continuation, as well as the impact that humans are having on this natural heritage.
Richly illustrated, accessible and engaging, The Game of Species is structured like the instruction manual for a board game whose separate pieces are individual species. Each chapter explores a different aspect of this game: the origin of the pieces, how they interact with each other, the rules of the different types of board on which species exist. This game-based approach guides the reader through the science of biodiversity in a fun and rather addictive way.
We are living in a time of deep crisis in the natural world, with the loss of species and habitats impoverishing the earth for future generations. In order to stop this trend, we need to understand the essential rules that regulate biodiversity. This is a book for everyone interested in how life on earth works and the evolutionary mechanisms that shape it.
