About this title

Synopsis

This second volume includes research contributions on the use of dynamical systems and stochastic models in disease dynamics. Graduate students in applied mathematics, scientists in the natural, social, and health sciences or mathematicians who want to enter the field of mathematical or theoretical epidemiology will find it useful.

Review

From the reviews:

"This two-volume set is based on a week-long workshop sponsored by the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications (the IMA) and held at the University of Minnesota in May 1999. ... There is a lot of valuable work in this two-volume set which could meet the intended aim of introducing people to research-level mathematical epidemiology." (Geoff Aldis, UK Nonlinear News, November 2002)
