Some aspects of modern population mathematics.
"The purpose of this paper is to survey a number of the technical tools and models that have found use in the study of human and other populations, and to indicate some problems of current interest.  These tools and models are varied:  integral equations, nonlinear oscillations, differential geometry, dynamical systems, nonlinear operation, bifurcation theory, semigroup theory, martingale theory, Markov processes, diffusion processes, branching processes, ergodic theory, prediction theory and state-space models.  A fairly extensive bibliography is provided.  Also an Appendix has been added describing the analysis of a classical entomological data set."  (summary in FRE)
