Referee's report by Major Greenwood, on a paper 'On the interaction between several species of hosts and parasites' by V A Bailey

Reference number: RR/49/2

Date: May 1933

Sectional Committee: Mathematics

Recommended for publication in the 'Proceedings of the Royal Society of London'. Finds the investigation interesting, but is not skilled as a pure mathematician to comment on those parts of the paper. Suggests seeking the opinion of Ronald Aylmer Fisher or Edmund Taylor Whittaker.
