This volume arose from a 2-day conference to celebrate the life and legacy of Dr Oliver Lathe Gilbert. It was organised by South Yorkshire Biodiversity Research Group and with Sheffield Hallam University. This volume commemorates a remarkable global champion for local wildlife and for urban ecology. Dr Oliver Gilbert of the Sheffield University Landscape Department was a truly international figure in ecology and lichenology; and his outspoken views on the benefits of exotic, sometimes invasive, urban plant species gained him coverage on the front pages of national newspapers.

The chapters reflect some of Oliver's wide range of interests written by invited contributors who knew him and his work.
