Islands have captured the imagination of scientists and the public for centuries - rare environments, their isolation makes them natural laboratories for ecology and evolution. This book examines many such insular settings - oceanic and continental islands as well as places such as caves, mountaintops, and whale falls at the bottom of the ocean.

Happily spend hours flicking from one article to another, learning something while celebrating the wonderful diversity that is the world's islands.
