Population Biology : Concepts and Models

Summary: Good Book That Should Be Enlarged
Review: ... This one is for sure a very good book on poppulation biology. However, we see at once that the part devoted to population genetics is very short indeed, if it is compared to the other part that treats about population ecology. In this way, it is my firm idea that the part on population genetics should be well enlarged. Only in this way, could we talk on a book about population biology. The way it is in fact written we could say that it is a book on population ecology, rather than on population biology. I recommend that on a future edition, Professor Hastings should dedicate about the same number of pages to both parts. The way this author writes, it will ensure a very large public acceptance.

Summary: As clear and concise a population biology text can be!
Review: At last a population biologist who can communicate ideas to the everyday student biologist. The biology and mathematics are completely integrated and well written. Minimal calculus is necessary to understand and use the mathematics behind population biology. Thanks Al.
