"I would buy this book and recommend it to my students. It is well written and accessible, putting many of the fundamental principles of ecological models within the grasp of the majority of undergraduates." - Michael Gillman, Trends in Ecology and Evolution This text teaches students essential models in population and community ecology. It explains in detail the basic concepts of exponential and logistic population growth, age-structured demography, metapopulation dynamics, competition, predation and island biogeography. Carefully graded chapters contain material for beginning undergraduates to beginning graduate students.Nicholas J. Gotelli is Professor in the Department of Biology at the University of Vermont. He graduated with a B.A. from the University of California, Berkeley, and earned his Ph.D. at Florida State University. Dr. Gotelli currently serves on the Board of Editors of Ecology.
