Abstract
In Chapter Two the fundamental premises of stable population theory, as well as the other foundations for respective stable models, were introduced. The models were of two basic types: discrete time models, and the continuous model. The two discrete time models illustrated were the recursive or finite difference model as discussed in Chapter Three, and the matrix model as discussed in Chapter Five. The continuous model was discussed in Chapter Four, and an alternate approach to this model is given as an appendix. It is now the intent to consolidate these models by highlighting their similarities and their differences.
