Reviews
From the reviews: "Probably the best book ever written on the subject of mathematical physiology a? It contains numerous exercises, enough to keep even the most diligent student busy, and a comprehensive list of approximately 600 references a? highly recommended to anybody interested in mathematical or theoretical physiology." Mathematical Reviews "In addition to being good reading, excellent pedagogy, and appealing science, the exposition is lucid and clear, and there are many good problem sets to choose from a? Highly recommended." Journal of the Society of Mathematical Biology

Synopsis
The aim of this book is to provide an overview of mathematical physiology containing a variety of physiological models. The book is divided into two parts. The first is a pedagogical presentation of some of the basic theory, with chapters on biochemical reactions, diffusion, excitability, wave propagation and cellular homeostasis. The second, more extensive part of the book, discusses particular physiological systems, with chapters on calcium dynamics, bursting oscillations and secretion, cardia cells, muscles, intercellular communication, the circulatory system, the immune system, wound healing, the respiratory system, the visual system, hormone physiology, renal physiology, digestion, the visual system and hearing., "Probably the best book ever written on the subject of mathematical physiology....It contains numerous exercises, enough to keep even the most diligent student busy...highly recommended to anybody interested in mathematical or theoretical physiology." --Mathematical Reviews This book details ways that mathematical theory can give insights into physiological questions and how physiological questions can in turn lead to new mathematical problems.
