This open access book describes the serious threat of invasive species to native ecosystems. Invasive species have caused and will continue to cause enormous ecological and economic damage with ever increasing world trade. This multi-disciplinary book, written by over 100 national experts, presents the latest research on a wide range of natural science and social science fields that explore the ecology, impacts, and practical tools for management of invasive species. It covers species of all taxonomic groups from insects and pathogens, to plants, vertebrates, and aquatic organisms that impact a diversity of habitats in forests, rangelands and grasslands of the United States. It is well-illustrated, provides summaries of the most important invasive species and issues impacting all regions of the country, and includes a comprehensive primary reference list for each topic. This scientific synthesis provides the cultural, economic, scientific and social context for addressing environmental challenges posed by invasive species and will be a valuable resource for scholars, policy makers, natural resource managers and practitioners.

Excerpt from Toward Wiser Use of Our Forests and Rangelands: 1981 Research Accomplishments Our Nation's forests are a basic renewable natural resource. Intelligent use of those forests requires another type of natural resource: knowledge. Thus a major function of the Forest Service is to learn how and why things happen in the forest. We not only need to learn how to grow trees faster and use them better, but also how to maintain the resource for future genera tions. We have a long-term stewardship responsibility.
