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 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 world's most
important agricultural lands. Now in a second edition with a new
preface, Crosby revisits his now-classic work and again evaluates the
global historical importance of European ecological expansion.
