简介
People of European descent form the bulk of the populationin most of the temperate zones of the world--North America,Australia and New Zealand. The military successes of European imperialism are easy to explain because in many cases they were achieved by using firearms against spears.Alfred Crosby, however, explains that the Europeans' displacement and replacement of the native peoples in the temperate zones was more a matter of biology than of military conquest. Now in a new edition with a new preface,Crosby revisits his classic work and again evaluates the ecological reasons for European expansion.
