The Trieste 1982 Autumn Course on Mathematical Ecology consisted of four weeks of very concentrated scholasticism and aestheticism. The first weeks were devoted to fundamentals and principles of mathematical ecology. A nucleus of the material from the lectures presented during this period constitutes this book.".
