"Students and other researchers entering the fields of ecology and conservation biology often come with little computational or mathematics training, leaving them feeling unprepared to participate in the quantitative aspects of research in these fields. In this "low threshold, high ceiling" introduction to the subject, Justin Kitzes, an ecologist who has taught students at both undergraduate and graduate levels, aims to remedy this situation. He argues that anyone with the ability and interest to study ecology can learn the basics of the most widely used methods in quantitative ecology. Specifically, Kitzes shows readers how to translate common biological questions into mathematical models, doing so using only basic algebra and the use of spreadsheets, without requiring any background in advanced mathematics or programming skills. Students and practicing conservation biologists who are mathematically out-of-practice or uncomfortable will find this book a useful and necessary resource"--
