What They're Saying

Critics Review

“Admirably, the volume is written with bits of MATLAB code inserted at appropriate places and has exercises interspersed throughout the text (as well as hints for solutions to the exercises at the end of the book).” The Quarterly Review of Biology, June 2010)

“The mathematical and reasoning sophistication increases as the chapters proceed.” (Book News, December 2009)
