Ecology of Center City, Philadelphia
By Kenneth D. Frank
A trove of astonishing observations in natural history
Twenty-nine beautifully illustrated chapters offer revelations about the ecology of downtown Philadelphia. Combined, they present a surprising discovery: This inner city district is ecologically dynamic and resilient. The author draws on Philadelphia’s unique legacy of scholarship in the field of natural history—spanning almost three centuries. A comparable exposition of the center of a major metropolitan area has never before been published.
