Mathematical Biology: I. An Introduction, Third Edition J.D. Murray Springer Interdisciplinary Applied Mathematics Volume 17 Editors S.S. Antman J.E. Marsden L. Sirovich S. Wiggins Geophysics and Planetary Sciences Mathematical Biology L. Glass, J.D. Murray Mechanics and Materials R.V. Kohn Systems and Control S.S. Sastry, P.S. Krishnaprasad Problems in engineering, computational science, and the physical and biological sci- ences are using increasingly sophisticated mathematical techniques. Thus, the bridge between the mathematical sciences and other disciplines is heavily traveled. The corre- spondingly increased dialog between the disciplines has led to the establishment of the series: Interdisciplinary Applied Mathematics . The purpose of this series is to meet the current and future needs for the interaction between various science and technology areas on the one hand and mathematics on the other. This is done, firstly, by encouraging the ways that mathematics may be applied in traditional areas, as well as point towards new and innovative areas of applications; and secondly, by encouraging other scientific disciplines to engage in a dialog with mathe- maticians outlining their problems to both access new methods and suggest innovative developments within mathematics itself. The series will consist of monographs and high-level texts from researchers working on the interplay between mathematics and other fields of science and technology.
