In the previous chapter, a sequence of matrices was used to model the sequence of subprocesses, birth, survival, movement, etc., which characterize population dynamics. We find this building block perspective attractive for at least two reasons: (1) it allows one to mentally "divide and conquer" sometimes complicated population dynamics processes; (2) the resulting product of matrices is a generalization of Leslie and Lefkovitch matrices, something familiar to many biologists.
