Using numerous biological examples to lay the groundwork for a unifying theory applicable to predator-prey, parasitoid-host, and other consumer-resource interactions, this book focuses on how the properties of real organisms affect population dynamics. It synthesizes and extends the authors' own models involving insect parasitoids and their hosts.
"Consumer Resource Dynamics needs to be on any ecological theorist's bookshelf. . . . A careful, detailed analysis, and a well-written book."---Patrick Foley, Ecology
