The conjoining of mathematics and biology has brought about
significant advances in both areas, with mathematics providing a
tool for modelling and understanding biological phenomena and
biology stimulating developments in the theory of nonlinear
differential equations. The continued application of mathematics to
biology holds great promise and in fact may be the applied
mathematics of the 21st century.

Differential Equations and Mathematical Biology provides a detailed
treatment of both ordinary and partial differential equations,
techniques for their solution, and their use in a variety of
biological applications. The presentation includes the fundamental
techniques of nonlinear differential equations, bifurcation theory,
and the impact of chaos on discrete time biological modelling. The
authors provide generous coverage of numerical techniques and
address a range of important applications, including heart
physiology, nerve pulse transmission, chemical reactions, tumour
growth, and epidemics.

This book is the ideal vehicle for introducing the challenges of
biology to mathematicians and likewise delivering key mathematical
tools to biologists. Carefully designed for such multiple purposes,
it serves equally well as a professional reference and as a text
for coursework in differential equations, in biological modelling,
or in differential equation models of biology for life science
students.
