| Zusammenfassung: | People of European descent form the bulk of the population in most of the temperate zones of the world - North America, Australia and New Zealand. The military successes of European imperialism are easy to explain; in many cases they were a matter of firearms against spears. But as Alfred W. Crosby maintains in this highly original and fascinating book, the Europeans' displacement and replacement of the native peoples in the temperate zones was more a matter of biology than of military conquest. European organisms had certain decisive advantages over their New World and Australian counterparts. The spread of European disease, flora and fauna went hand in hand with the growth of populations. Consequently, these imperialists became proprietors of the most important agricultural lands in the world. In the second edition, Crosby revisits his now classic work and again evaluates the global historical importance of European ecological expansion. |

European organisms had certain decisive advantages over their New World and Australian counterparts. The spread of European disease, flora and fauna went hand in hand with the growth of populations. Consequently, these imperialists became proprietors of the most important agricultural lands in the world. In the second edition, Crosby revisits his now classic work and again evaluates the global historical importance of European ecological expansion.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="588" ind1="0" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on November 12, 2021).</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Human ecology.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85062856</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Europeans</subfield><subfield code="x">Migrations.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh86002173</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Human geography.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85005570</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Biogeography.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85014147</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Écologie humaine.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Européens</subfield><subfield code="x">Migrations.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Biogéographie.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">human ecology.</subfield><subfield code="2">aat</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">SOCIAL SCIENCE</subfield><subfield code="x">Human Geography.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Biogeography</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Europeans</subfield><subfield code="x">Migrations</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Human ecology</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Human geography</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Electronic books.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="4"><subfield code="a">Electronic books.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Print version:</subfield><subfield code="z">1107569877</subfield><subfield code="z">9781107569874</subfield><subfield code="w">(OCoLC)920868480</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="830" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Canto classics.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2012067172</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="856" ind1="4" ind2="0"><subfield code="l">FWS01</subfield><subfield code="p">ZDB-4-EBA</subfield><subfield code="q">FWS_PDA_EBA</subfield><subfield code="u">https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=1077405</subfield><subfield code="3">Volltext</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Askews and Holts Library Services</subfield><subfield code="b">ASKH</subfield><subfield code="n">AH34210401</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Askews and Holts Library Services</subfield><subfield code="b">ASKH</subfield><subfield code="n">AH37563829</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Askews and Holts Library Services</subfield><subfield code="b">ASKH</subfield><subfield code="n">AH29985485</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Askews and Holts Library Services</subfield><subfield code="b">ASKH</subfield><subfield code="n">AH29385977</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">EBL -

Canto Classics edition. Cambridge, United Kingdom : Cambridge University Press, 2015. ©2015 1 online resource (xxii, 368 pages, 16 unnumbered pages of plates) : illustrations, maps text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Canto classics Includes bibliographical references and index. Prologue -- Pangaea revisited, the Neolithic reconsidered -- The Norse and the Crusaders -- The Fortunate Isles -- Winds -- Within reach, beyond grasp -- Weeds -- Animals -- Ills -- New Zealand -- Explanations -- Conclusion -- Appendix: what was the "smallpox" in New South Wales in 1789? People of European descent form the bulk of the population in most of the temperate zones of the world - North America, Australia and New Zealand. The military successes of European imperialism are easy to explain; in many cases they were a matter of firearms against spears. But as Alfred W. Crosby maintains in this highly original and fascinating book, the Europeans' displacement and replacement of the native peoples in the temperate zones was more a matter of biology than of military conquest. European organisms had certain decisive advantages over their New World and Australian counterparts. The spread of European disease, flora and fauna went hand in hand with the growth of populations. Consequently, these imperialists became proprietors of the most important agricultural lands in the world. In the second edition, Crosby revisits his now classic work and again evaluates the global historical importance of European ecological expansion.
