This book presents an evolutionary biogeographic analysis of the Mexican Transition Zone, which is situated in the overlap of the Nearctic and Neotropical regions. It includes a comprehensive review of previous track, cladistic and molecular biogeographic analyses and is illustrated with full color maps and vegetation photographs of the respective areas covered. Given its scope, the book will be of interest to students and researchers whose work involves systematic and biogeographic analyses of plant and animal taxa of the Mexican Transition Zone or other transition zones of the world, and to ecologists working in biodiversity conservation, who will be able to appreciate the evolutionary relevance of the Mexican Transition Zone for establishing conservation areas.

Environmental and specific diversity in the Chihuahuan desert in general, and in the Cuatro Ciénegas Basin in particular, has long been recognized as outstanding. This book provides a global ecological overview, together with in-depth studies of specific processes. The Chihuahuan desert is the warmest in North America, and has a complex geologic, climatic and biogeographical history, which affects today’s distribution of vegetation and plants and generates complex phylogeographic patterns. The high number of endemic species reflects this complex set of traits. The modern distribution of environments, including aquatic and subaquatic systems, riparian environments, gypsum dunes and gypsum-rich soils, low levels of phosphorous and organic matter, and high salinity combined with an extreme climate call for a range of adaptations. Plants are distributed in a patchy pattern based on punctual variations, and many of them respond to different resources and conditions with considerable morphological plasticity. In terms of physiological, morphological and ecological variability, cacti were identified as the most important group in specific environments like bajadas, characterized by high diversity values, while gypsophytes and gypsovagues of different phylogenies, including species with restricted distribution and endemics.

The book provides a comprehensive account of a tropical lake, Alchichica, considering that tropical limnology is by far less well-understood than temperate. Many of the well-known temperate limnology paradigms do not apply in tropical limnology, such as the ≥ 1ºC/m thermocline concept, or the role of phosphorous as limiting nutrient. Lake Alchichica is - most likely - the best limnologically known Mexican lake up to date. Twenty years of continuous monitoring has led us to understand this deep, warm monomictic lake. The peculiar chemical composition of this saline lake - sodium-alkaline with high concentration in magnesium waters, and groundwater-fed - led to the formation of its unique stromatolite ring that has become world-famous, studied by scientists from various countries. From a biological point of view, this relatively small maar lake displays a low species richness, but surprisingly is plentiful in microendemic species for a recently-formed lake (12,000 years old, at the onset of Holocene Epoch), eleven of which already described, with more to come. Researchers and students interested in tropical limnology, extreme ecosystems, evolutionary biology, and microbiology will find this book a must-read.

A esta historia de México se le ha llamado "general", primero, por ser completa, pues va desde la llegada del hombre al continente americano hasta nuestros días y, segundo, porque se ofrece al lector general, o sea, al que no necesita una preparación especial para leerla y apreciarla. Este tomo estudia los tres turbulentos siglos de dominación española. Se ocupa de ella varios especialistas: Alejandra Moreno Toscano examina el siglo de la comnquista, y presenta el asedio y la caída de Tecnochtitlan como un relato en el que alternan las voces españolas y las indígenas . Andrés Lira y Luis Muro muestran el vasto panorama del siglo XVII, desde el paisaje y la integración del país hasta las fricciones y alzamientos, sin olvidar las empresas económicas y las transformaciones sociales que marcan este siglo, quiza el menos estudiado hasta ahora. Enrique Florescano e Isabel Gil Sánchez hacen un penetrante análisis de las causas y efectos de las reformas borbónicas, y de las condiciones peculiares a la Nueva España, revelando la inestabilidad social y el desajuste político del siglo XVII. Luis Villoro, con gran claridad analítica, describe la revolución de independencia, los problemas que trató de solucionar, la guerra misma, el Congreso Constituyente y la consumación del movimiento. Cierra el volumen un magistral estudio de Jorge Alberto Manrique - "Del barroco a la ilustración"- que nos da, a través del arte, un cuadro vívido y exacto de la vida que peninsulares, criollos e indios, castas y 'gente menuda', llevaron en las opulentas cuidades novohispanas.
