Book excerpt: The book "Landscape Ecology Brief Concept, Scale, and Analysis" is thoughtfully crafted to cater to both beginners and scholars, facilitating an easy grasp of the recently emerged discipline of 'Landscape Ecology.' The book briefly covers the fundamental concepts, scaling processes, and pattern analysis of landscapes from an ecological perspective. The chapters are seamlessly organized to provide a logical flow of information. Throughout the book, simple illustrations and reliable graphical examples enhance understanding. The text is rich with information and draws examples from local environments, particularly focusing on forestry and elephants in southwest Bengal, aligning with the author's professional interests. Serving as a synthesis of both concepts and applications in landscape ecology, I anticipate that this book will enhance and also contribute to the development of knowledge and perceptual ideas for students and researchers interested in Landscape Ecology.
