Interspecific competition: a new approach to the classical theory
Science.
.
Abstract
The biological consequences of the classical theory of competition are shown to be at least partly a function of a very special way of interpreting particular constants in simple equations. Ii is shown how altered consequences may be obtained by different, but equally plausible, interpretations of those constants.
