Chapter Chapter 1 in Periodic Solutions of First-Order Functional Differential Equations in Population Dynamics, 2014, pp 1-13 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract An introduction to first-order differential equations of biological population models is given. This includes Nicholson’s blowflies model, the Hematopoiesis model, Richards single species growth model, and the Lasota-Wazewska model. Allee effects are also described. Concepts needed for applying the Leggett-Williams fixed point theorem are introduced.
