Mathematical Biology II: Spatial Models and Biomedical Applications (Interdisciplinary Applied Mathematics, 18) - Hardcover
Synopsis
This richly illustrated third edition provides a thorough training in practical mathematical biology and shows how exciting mathematical challenges can arise from a genuinely interdisciplinary involvement with the biosciences. It has been extensively updated and extended to cover much of the growth of mathematical biology.
From the reviews: ""This book, a classical text in mathematical biology, cleverly combines mathematical tools with subject area sciences."--SHORT BOOK REVIEWS

Review
From the reviews:
"The 2nd volume of the authors elucidating work highlights a surprisingly broad spectrum of applications in the field of mathematical biology. The sense given to the mathematical texture of thoughts broadens the reader’s insight ... . The growing number of specialists in sub-disciplines of mathematical biology will be enjoying the truly concise approach ... . It can so be said that the foremost results ... might be essential for new interpretations of data ... . It is a recommended text for mathematicians ... ." (Daniel Gertsch, Bioworld, Issue 2, 2004)
From the reviews of the third edition:
"This is the second volume of the third edition of Murray’s ‘Mathematical Biology’. ... covers a wide variety of problems in pattern formation, each discussed in its biological context. ... This volume alone is a large book, with more than 800 pages and a similar number of references. ... it is a valuable collection of results from different areas of mathematical biology." (Carlo Laing, New Zealand Mathematical Society Newsletter, Issue 90, April, 2004)
"This book, a classical text in mathematical biology, cleverly combines mathematical tools with subject area sciences. The multi-layer way of material presentation makes the book useful for different types of reader including graduate-level students, bioscientists ... . it is an enjoyable reading and I recommend it to anyone with serious interest in mathematical modelling." (V.V. Fedorov, Short Book Reviews, Vol. 23 (3), 2003)
"This second volume of the third edition of Murray’s Mathematical biology focuses on partial differential equations (spatial models) and their application to the biomedical sciences. ... Each chapter deals with its particular topic in great detail, usually focusing on one biological example and the associated mathematical model and results. This volume is not an introductory text ... making it extremely useful in graduate courses and for reference." (Trachette L. Jackson, Mathematical Reviews, 2004b)
"In this second volume ... the development towards specific biological configurations and towards a mechanism for understanding morphogenesis represents an important portion of the work. ... chapters deal with attractive topics ... . There is an extensive index at the end. ... very interesting and strongly recommended." (A. Akutowicz, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1006, 2003)
"In this volume it becomes clear that compiling the third edition was a ‘labor of love’. The book has a significantly different feel from the original first edition. ... my reaction to the third edition was positive. ... The historical and biological overviews have much interesting information. ... Certainly, the spicy writing will keep students alert ... . In summary, I recommend the new and expanded third edition to any serious young student interested in mathematical biology ... ." (Leah Edelstein-Keshet, SIAM Review, Vol. 46 (1), 2004)
"Mathematical Biology would be eminently suitable as a text for a final year undergraduate or postgraduate course in mathematical biology ... . It is also a good source of examples for courses in mathematical methods ... . Mathematical Biology provides a good way into the field and a useful reference for those of us already there. It may attract more mathematicians to work in biology by showing them that there is real work to be done." (Peter Saunders, The Mathematical Gazette, Vol. 90 (518), 2006)

MATHEMATICAL BIOLOGY, 3/ED.2003
Seller: LIBRERIA LEA+, Santiago, RM, Chile
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Dura. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: Nuevo. No Aplica (illustrator). 0. It has been over a decade since the release first edition of the now classic original edition of Murray's Mathematical Biology. Since then mathematical biology and medicine has grown at an astonishing rate and has established itself as a distinct discipline. Mathematical modelling is now being applied in every major discipline in the biomedical sciences. Though the field has become increasingly large and specialized, this book remains important as a text that introduces some of the exciting problems which arise in the biomedical sciences and gives some indication of the wide spectrum of questions that modelling can address. Due to the tremendous development in recent years, this new edition is being published in two volumes. This second volume covers spatial models and biomedical applications. For this new edition, Murray covers certain items in depth, introducing new applications such as modelling growth and control of brain tumours, bacterial patterns, wound healing and wolf territoriality. In other areas, he discusses basic modelling concepts and provides further references as needed. He also provides even closer links between models and experimental data throughout the text. Graduate students and researchers will find this book invaluable as it gives an excellent background from which to begin genuinely practical interdisciplinary research in the biomedical sciences. 1300 gr.
