Produktinformationen zu „An Introduction to the Mathematics of Biology with Computer Algebra Models “
This textbook on mathematical biology is designed for students with no previous background in biology and very little background in mathematics. It teaches the two subjects as equal and inter-related subjects, and it uses the powerful Maple computer algebra system as a tool in solving the computational and graphing problems. The use of the Maple system allows a hands-on approach to computation, and this provides a source of information through the use of "what if" scenarios, allowing students to grasp important biological and mathematical concepts. For students who do not have access to a computer algebra system, each topic is complete without the use of either numerical or symbolic equations. Graphic visualizations are provided for all the mathematical results.
Klappentext zu „An Introduction to the Mathematics of Biology with Computer Algebra Models “
433 p.This book is designed to be understandable to students of biology as well as to students of mathematics and related physical sciences. No prior study of biology is necessary and only one year of calculus is required. A unique feature of the book is the use of a computer algebra system, Maple, in parts of every chapter.
This hands-on approach to computation provides a rich source of information through the use of 'what-if' scenarios and thus allows students to grasp important biological and mathematical concepts in a way that is not possible without such technology. For students who do not have access to a computer algebra system, each topic is complete without the use of either numerical or symbolic equations. Graphic visualizations are provided for all the mathematical results.

Rezension zu „An Introduction to the Mathematics of Biology with Computer Algebra Models “
"A very well balanced combination of biology and mathematics. Mathematics students have an opportunity to learn enough biology to make good models, and biology students will see it as an opportunity to understand the dynamics of a biological system. It can serve as the source of many good models with possible applications in different areas of biological research." --Gen. Physiol. Biophysics "The title is a good description of this introductory textbook, which integrates quite nicely biology and mathematics! Each chapter ends with questions for discussion and references pointing to further reading! Intended for biology students with one year of calculus who want an introduction to mathematical modeling and for mathematics students with little knowledge of biology who want to become familiar with biological applications. The book succeeds at both intents. It is an excellent appetizer." --Zentralblatt MATH
