Product Description
Systems biology is a highly topical discipline at the intersection of biochemistry, cell biology, computer science, and systems engineering. This course book in systems biology is tailored to the needs of advanced students of biology, engineering, and computer science. It has a companion website with solutions to questions in the book, additional chapters, and computer implementations of systems biology models. The book is a follow-up of the very successful Systems Biology in Practice and incorporates the feedback and suggestions of many lecturers worldwide. The interdisciplinary team of acclaimed authors have worked closely together to ensure a comprehensive coverage of the topic in a fluent and compelling style. Further material is available on www.wiley-vch.de/home/systemsbiology Systems Biology in Practice - Praise from the reviews: "...this is one book that I bought for myself as soon as it was published." —British Journal of Occupational Therapy "This resource does an admirable job of bringing the readers to a level where they can pursue more advanced study and research." —IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Magazine "… I am confident that biologists everywhere will benefit from having a copy to hand." —Theoretical Biology and Medical Modelling |

| Computational Modelling Of Gene Regulatory Networks -- A Primer
by Hamid Bolouri (Author)
This book serves as an introduction to the myriad computational approaches to gene regulatory modeling and analysis, and is written specifically with experimental biologists in mind. Mathematical jargon is avoided and explanations are given in intuitive terms. In cases where equations are unavoidable, they are derived from first principles or, at the very least, an intuitive description is provided. Extensive examples and a large number of model descriptions are provided for use in both...

| Wetware: A Computer in Every Living Cell
by Dennis Bray (Author)
How does a single-cell creature, such as an amoeba, lead such a sophisticated life? How does it hunt living prey, respond to lights, sounds, and smells, and display complex sequences of movements without the benefit of a nervous system? This book offers a startling and original answer. In clear, jargon-free language, Dennis Bray taps the findings of the new discipline of systems biology to show...

| Complexity: A Guided Tour
by Melanie Mitchell (Author)
What enables individually simple insects like ants to act with such precision and purpose as a group? How do trillions of individual neurons produce something as extraordinarily complex as consciousness? What is it that guides self-organizing structures like the immune system, the World Wide Web, the global economy, and the human genome? These are just a few of the fascinating and elusive questions that the science of complexity seeks to answer.
In this remarkably accessible...

| Physical Biology of the Cell
by Rob Phillips (Author), Jane Kondev (Author), Julie Theriot (Author)
Physical Biology of the Cell is a biophysics textbook that explores how the basic tools and insights of physics and mathematics can illuminate the study of molecular and cell biology. Drawing on key examples and seminal experiments from cell biology, the book demonstrates how quantitative models can help refine our understanding of existing biological data and also be used to make useful predictions. The book blends traditional models in cell biology with the quantitative approach typical in...
