This really is the golden age of Mathematics. It has been said that half
the Mathematics ever created has been in the last 100 years and that half
the mathematicians who have ever lived are alive today. We have seen such
achievements as the resolution of the four-colour problem and Fermat's
last theorem, with the latter being a special manifestation of a much more
general result!
This book consists of chapters that deal with important topics in
Biomathematics. A glance through any modern textbook or journal in the
fields of ecology, genetics, physiology or biochemistry reveals that there
has been an increasing use of mathematics, which ranges from the solution
of complicated differential equation in population studies to the use of
transfer functions in the analysis of eye-tracking mechanisms. This volume
deals with Applied Mathematics in Biology and Medicine and is concerned
with applied mathematical models and computer simulation in the areas of
Molecular and Cellular Biology, Biological Soft Tissues and Structures as
well as Bioengineering.
In this volume an attempt has been made to cover biological background
and mathematical techniques whenever required. The aim has been to formulate
various mathematical models on a fairly general platform, making
the biological assumptions quite explicit and to perform the analysis in relatively
rigorous terms. I hope, the choice and treatment of the problems will
enable the readers to understand and evaluate detailed analyses of specific
models and applications in the literature. |

| | Telecommunications and Networks (Computer Weekly)Telecommunications is an old and stable technology if you think only of telephones and telegraph. But in the 1960s came computers and the processing of data. Soon, we needed data communications to transmit data to remote PCs connected by networks. Later, these points of communications increased in number, with the transmission being no longer... | | Fibrogenesis: Cellular and Molecular Basis (Medical Intelligence Unit)
This book is written to provide in-depth and current information on the
molecular basis of fibrotic diseases in various tissues and organs. Why do we need a
new book on fibrosis? Several currently available books on fibrosis are mostly
devoted to specific tissue or organ systems; in contrast, this book is especially
designed to... |
