- Summary:
- In addition to the well known contributions of computers, and ideas from computer science, to biology, say Lamm and Unger (not further identified), biological thinking has also influenced computing, and it is this phenomenon that they pursue here. Writing for computer scientists interested in biology, they discuss cellular automata, evolutionary computation, artificial neural networks, molecular computation, and additional topics at the interface between biology and computation. Chapter-end exercises are provided along with answers. Annotation ©2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
