This book is aimed at anyone with a serious interest in ecology.
Ecological models of two kinds are dealt with: mathematical models
of a strategic kind aimed at an understanding of the general
properties of ecosystems and laboratory models designed with the
same aim in view. The mathematical and experimental models
illuminate one another. A strength of the account is that although
there is a good deal of mathematics, Professor Maynard Smith has
concentrated on making clear the assumptions behind the mathematics
and the conclusions to be drawn. Proofs and derivations have been
omitted as far as possible. The book is therefore comprehensible to
anyone with a minimal familiarity with mathematical notation. This
book was written in the twin convictions that ecology will not come
of age until it has a sound theoretical basis and there is a long
way to go before that state of affairs is reached.
