Synopsis

A famous ecologist and a philosopher of science team up to offer a fresh new approach to population biology and ecology. Challenging the traditionally accepted Lotka-Volterra model, which is based on predator-prey interactions, this new model emphasizes maternal effects, specifically the significance of a mother's interest in the success of her female offspring.

Revue de presse

...the book is stimulating and undoubtedly has an important message to convey... Steohen Hoskins, The Biologist, October 2006.

This book should be of obvious interest to theoretical ecologists. It is certainly accessible to graduate students, and perhaps even to advanced undergraduates. (ISBE Newsletter)
