The concept of network as a mathematical description of a set of
states, or events, linked according to a certain topology has been
developed recently and has led to a novel approach of real world.
This approach is no doubt important in the field of biology. In
fact biological systems can be considered networks. Thus, for
instance, an enzyme-catalysed reaction is a network that links,
according to a certain topology, the various states of the protein
and of its complexes with the substrates and products of the
chemical reaction. Connections between neurons, social relations in
animal and human populations are also examples of networks. Hence
there is little doubt that the concept of network transgresses the
boundaries between traditional scientific disciplines.
This book is aimed at discussing in physical terms these exciting
new topics on simple protein model lattices, supramolecular protein
edifices, multienzyme and gene networks.
*Physical and mathematical approach of biological phenomena.
*Offers biochemists and biologists the mathematical background
required to understand the text.
*Associates in the same general formulation, the ideas of
communication of a message and organization of a system.
*Provides a clear-cut definition and mathematical expression of the
concepts of reduction, integration, emergence and complexity that
were so far time-honoured and vague
