About this title

Review:

'There really is not a book that is directly comparable. Students will be able to study any area of biology with a mathematical perspective. The projects and the introduction to computation are a real bonus.' Fred Brauer, University of British Columbia

'One can warmly recommend this book to any undergraduate students in life science or mathematics who want to be introduced to the fascinating field of biomathematics.' J.-P. Gabriel, Département de Mathématiques de l'université, Fribourg

Book Description:

This is the only book that teaches all aspects of modern mathematical modeling and that is specifically designed to introduce undergraduate students to problem solving in the context of biology. Included are many realistic biological examples, numerous exercises related to biological questions, and 25 open-ended research projects, suitable for students.
