- Summary:
- This second edition of a classic mathematical biology book deals with the dynamics of processes that repeat themselves regularly. This cycle of change is a ubiquitous principle of organization in living systems. This new edition addresses areas in biomathematics that have come to fruition since 1980. The author, a leader in the field, offers valuable insights into the important areas of future development in nonlinear dynamics in the natural sciences.
