Mathematics for biosciences: from theory to worked examples and applications

Abstract:

Mathematics for Biosciences is an ideal resource for those students needing a complete course of Mathematics, from basic algebra to advanced calculus and their applications. More than just a compendium of the necessary mathematical tools, the material is developed beyond the level needed to merely 'get by'. It utilises a tried-and-tested pedagogical philosophy that has been carefully developed over 25 years of 'on the job' experience in successfully teaching mathematics to nearly 3,000 undergraduate students reading Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry at the University of Oxford (UK).

This textbook is aimed at first-year undergraduates studying different Bioscience disciplines, including Biochemistry, Biology, Natural Sciences, Chemistry, Medicine, and Biomedical Sciences, and helps bridge the gap between those students who are equipped with mathematical training, and those without. It is also suitable for postgraduate and postdoctoral researchers in the Biosciences who want to refresh their Mathematics background, and university instructors who need a resource complete with problems for their students.
