Written for students in mathematics and biology, this book illustrates mathematical techniques used in many areas in the biological sciences. The book begins with an introduction and review of ideas about biological modeling, calculus, and differential equations. Later chapters examine standard discrete and continuous models using difference and differential equations and matrix algebra. Topics covered include ecological modeling, population dynamics for single species, statistical inference, and stochastic processes.

MATLAB is used to solve numerous application examples throughout the text.
