"We used to think of the Environment as our natural surroundings, and of Ecology as the study of interrelations between wildlife and those surroundings.

Now that advanced technology has brought together increasing numbers of scientists of many disciplines to achieve a common understanding of these processes, we have a much more comprehensive view of ecology.

That view transcends physical and biological considerations to encompass the totality of man and the environment, including his socioeconomic well-being and health."
