Eugene Odum:
Ecosystem Ecologist
​and environmentalist
​

Picture
Students of nature around the world revere Eugene Odum as a founder and pioneer of ecosystem ecology. In this first biography of Odum, Betty Jean Craige depicts the intellectual growth, creativity, and vision of the scientist who made the ecosystem concept central to his discipline and translated the principles of ecosystem ecology into lessons in preserving the natural environment.
     Placing Odum's achievements in historical context, Craige traces his life from his childhood through his education, his collaboration with his brother Howard T. Odum in developing methods to study ecosystems, his contributions to the field of radiation ecology, and his environmental activism.

​
Cooperation for mutual benefit, a survival strategy very common in natural systems, is one that humanity needs to emulate. --Eugene P. Odum
