Biology of Habitats The Biology of Urban Environments How do plants, animals, and humans survive in, and adapt to. an urban habitat? This accessible textbook pro ides a comprehensive overview of the biological factors related to urban environments. A rigorous conceptual and theoretical framework is enriched with practical examples, offering insights into the challenges presented by this novel environment. The focus is on urban denizens: species (both domesticated and non-domesticated) that live for all or part of their life cycle in towns and cities. The biology of companion animals and household plants is discussed alongside that of feral and undomesticated species. Temporal and spatial distribution patterns are described, with generalizations made and exceptions discussed. The ariete of strategies and adaptations-—-genotypic, phenoty pic. and behav iouralused by plants and animals faced w ith the challenges presented by urban environments are explained in detail. The book concludes with a discussion of the impacts of urban environments on human biology and how this know ledge might be usefully applied to address the increasing human health burden associated w ith illnesses that are now characteristic of urbanites in the early twenty-first century. The Binlo ev of Urban Environments prov ides a highly readable introduction for anv student, researcher, or professional addressing the multiplicity of issues w hielt aceompanv a fast-grow ing w orld population and the associated global phenomenon of urbanization. Architects, planners, health professionals, ecologists, land
managers, and politicians will all find this book a useful and authoritative summary of contemporary thinking on urban biolotrv.
