Written specifically to strengthen the quantitative skills of life science students, Mathematics for the Biological Sciences presents mathematical concepts with biological applications. Its nine chapters deal with a wide range of mathematics and, through worked examples, help students develop the ability to relate mathematics to biology. In its pages you will find: • Sound, in-depth coverage of essential finite mathematics, including discrete probability and matrices • Lucid explanations of Markov chains and game theory-Important in population ecology and in medical diagnosis and treatment • Detailed descriptions of discrete and continuous probability distributions important in biological applications • Development of difference equations-a vital tool in population genetics • A chapter devoted to developing skills in building mathematical models of biological processes • Presentation of parallel developments of difference and differential equations, with clear explanations of how both
