There are many books on aspects of plant invasions, but none that focus on the key role of species interactions in mediating invasions. This book reviews exciting new findings and explores how new methods and tools are shedding new light on crucial processes in plant invasions.In 23 chapters, with contributions from 51 authors, the book addresses :· the main theories and hypotheses in plant invasion ecology that invoke species interactions ;· plant invasions that are facilitated by, or benefit from, by mutualistic interactions and release from enemies ;· antagonistic interactions that prevent or hinder plant invasions ;· impacts of plant invasions on native species interactions and ecosystem functioning ;· the interaction-network approach to understanding plant invasions ;· the importance of considering species interactions in managing plant invasions

Exotic invasive plant species pose a serious threat to native biodiversity. Invasive plants transmogrify the landscape ecology in a highly complex manner leading to a sort of ecological explosion. Global terrestrials as well as aquatic ecosystems are invaded by various invasive plant species. Invasive species are alien species whose introduction and spread threatens ecosystems, habitats or species with socio-cultural, economic and/or environmental harm, and also poses a risk to human health. The present book aims to provide a critical review on the mechanisms, impact and management of invasive
