Book Description:

This book gives a theoretical treatment of the competition between different strains of micro-organisms consuming a single nutrient in a common laboratory device called a chemostat. Mathematical analysis using tools of dynamical systems leads to general and testable predictions of the behaviour of real ecological and biotechnology systems.
