Note(s) : Theoretical Ecology: concepts and applications continues the authoritative and established
sequence of theoretical ecology books initiated by Robert M. May which helped pave
the way for ecology to become a more robust theoretical science, encouraging the modern
biologist to better understand the mathematics behind their theories. This latest
instalment builds on the legacy of its predecessors with a completely new set of contributions.
Rather than placingemphasis on the historical ideas in theoretical ecology, the Editors
have encouraged each contribution to: synthesize historical theoretical ideas within
modern frameworks that have emerged in the last 10-20 years (e.g. bridging population
interactions to whole food webs); describe novel theory that has emergedin the last
20 years from historical empirical areas (e.g. macro-ecology); and finally to cover
the rapidly expanding area of theoretical ecological applications (e.g. disease theory
and global change theory). The result is a forward-looking synthesis that will help
guide the field through a further decade of discovery and development. It is written
for upper level undergraduate students, graduate students, and researchers seeking
synthesis and the state of the art in growing areas of interest in theoretical ecology,
genetics, evolutionary ecology, and mathematical biology
