How do populations grow and interact with one another through competition and predation? How does behaviour influence ecology and evolution? This second edition of Dick Neal&#8217;s unique textbook on population biology addresses these questions and offers a comprehensive analysis of evolutionary theory in the areas of ecology, population genetics, and behaviour. Taking a quantitative and Darwinian perspective, Neal uses mathematical models to develop the basic theory of population processes. Key features in this edition include new chapters on inbreeding and species interactions and community structure, a modified structure in Part II, more recent empirical examples to illustrate the application of theoretical models to the world around us, and end-of-chapter problems to help students with self-assessment. A series of spreadsheet simulations have also been conveniently located online, for students to further improve their understanding of such models.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Offers a quantitative and Darwinian perspective on population biology<\/li>\n<li>The book expressly links evolutionary processes with those of ecology<\/li>\n<li>The book is packed full of worked examples and problem sets with solutions<\/li>\n<li>Gives a broad treatment of the basic theory of natural selection, population genetics, population ecology and behavioural ecology<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Source :\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cambridge.org\/th\/academic\/subjects\/life-sciences\/ecology-and-conservation\/introduction-population-biology-2nd-edition?format=PB\">https:\/\/www.cambridge.org\/th\/academic\/subjects\/life-sciences\/ecology-and-conservation\/introduction-population-biology-2nd-edition?format=PB<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AUTHOR :\u00a0 Neal, Dick, 1943- CALL NO :\u00a0 QH352 N338i 2019 IMPRINT :\u00a0\u00a0 Cambridge : Cambridge University Press, c2019<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5741,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[1481],"class_list":["post-5832","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-new-book-releases","tag-population-biology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stang.sc.mahidol.ac.th\/newresources\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5832","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stang.sc.mahidol.ac.th\/newresources\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stang.sc.mahidol.ac.th\/newresources\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stang.sc.mahidol.ac.th\/newresources\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stang.sc.mahidol.ac.th\/newresources\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=5832"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/stang.sc.mahidol.ac.th\/newresources\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5832\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5833,"href":"https:\/\/stang.sc.mahidol.ac.th\/newresources\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5832\/revisions\/5833"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stang.sc.mahidol.ac.th\/newresources\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/5741"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stang.sc.mahidol.ac.th\/newresources\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=5832"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stang.sc.mahidol.ac.th\/newresources\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=5832"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stang.sc.mahidol.ac.th\/newresources\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=5832"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
