Elementary Mathematical Ecology
Gaining access to the literature in contemporary ecology has become a different task than it was 15 years ago. Today a background in mathematics is a requirement for the serious ecologist. Without a working knowledge of certain mathematical concepts the current ecological literature is virtually meaningless. Although the training of students in ecology usually includes a brief exposure to the more historically important mathematics results, it is only the exceptional student who will make a special effort to develop an understanding of the mathemtical concepts that are the base of the latest in the literature. Yet the ability to use that literature to the full rests on that understanding. The problem is that the average ecologist has a great deal of difficult keeping up with modern trends.
