Analysis of biological processes Verbal description, schemes, and ma
The main concern of the book is analysis of biological processes, the final stage of which is mathematical modeling, i.e. quantitative presentation of the processes in rigorous mathematical terms. It is designated for non-mathematicians. Mathematical mode

Preface The book is designed as an introduction for students of biology, biochemistry and biophysics, and for the researchers interested in analysis of biological processes. And this is done in an explanatory rather than mathematical manner the mathematical equations being based on reasonable assumptions. These assumptions facilitate the understanding of the subject by developing an abstract mathematical foundation from the beginning. And this rewards the students with an easy understanding of the subject. It seems that experimental data in biology quite often are analyzed inadequately. Useful and interesting inferences that can be dr
