In Search of Intelligent Life...: A response to: Ludwig. 2001. 'Crisis and Transformation'

Abstract

"Dr. Ludwig (2001) frames the problem with his opening sentence: 'These are stressful times for ecologists, as we attempt to counter threats to cherished places and species.' In the third sentence from the end of his editorial, he again accents the 'places' occupied by species: 'We ecologists are not alone in our concern for the earth's ecosystems.'"
