I am a Ph.D. student currently enrolled in an Ecology course (it is not a
microbial ecology course but a general course). All students must write a
paper titled "The logistic expression in ecology: its history, uses, and
abuses". I would like to write mine from a microbiology perspective. I
have obtained several references but am having some problems with the
history component, particularly early references. Could someone point me
in the right direction and I will do the rest. Thanks.
