Oxford 2009, kt., 289 Seiten, viele Graphiken, zum Teil in Farbe. "This book synthesis of theoretical and empirical work generates new insights about the process of thermal adaptation and points the way towards a more general theory. The threat of rapid climatic change on a global scale provides a stark reminder of the challenges that remain for thermal biologists and adds a sense of urgency to this book's mission".
