Universitext Mathematical Modeling for the Life Sciences, (Paperback)

This textbook provides a general overview of realistic mathematical models in life sciences, considering both deterministic and stochastic models and covering dynamical systems, game theory, stochastic processes, and statistical methods. Each mathematical model is explained and illustrated individually with an appropriate biological example. Three appendices on ordinary differential equations, evolution equations, and probability are included to make it possible to read this book independently of other literature.
