The result of lectures given by the authors at New York University,
the University of Utah, and Michigan State University, the material
is written for students who have had only one term of calculus, but
it contains material that can be used in modeling courses in
applied mathematics at all levels through early graduate courses.
Numerous exercises are given as well as solutions to selected
exercises, so as to lead readers to discover interesting extensions
of that material. Throughout, illustrations depict physiological
processes, population biology phenomena, corresponding models, and
the results of computer simulations. Topics covered range from
population phenomena to demographics, genetics, epidemics and
dispersal; in physiological processes, including the circulation,
gas exchange in the lungs, control of cell volume, the renal
counter-current multiplier mechanism, and muscle mechanics; to
mechanisms of neural control. Each chapter is graded in difficulty,
so a reading of the first parts of each provides an elementary
introduction to the processes and their models.
