DESCRIPTION:
Forger is Professor in the Department of Mathematics and in the Department of Computational Medicine and Bioinformatics at the University of Michigan. About the Author Daniel B.
Each chapter offers exercises. The chapters proceed with increasing mathematical abstraction. Drawing on material from such disciplines as mathematical biology, nonlinear dynamics, physics, statistics, and engineering, it presents practical advice and techniques for studying biological rhythms, with a common language. Sections on "frontiers" present the latest research; "theory" sections present interesting mathematical results using more accessible approaches than can be found elsewhere. The book, by an expert in the field, can be used as a textbook for undergraduate courses in mathematical biology or graduate courses in modeling biological rhythms and as a reference for researchers..
