"Essential Mathematical Biology" is a self-contained introduction to the fast-growing field of mathematical biology.

Written for students with a mathematical background, it sets the subject in its historical context and then guides the reader towards questions of current research interest, providing a comprehensive overview of the field and a solid foundation for interdisciplinary research in the biological sciences.

A broad range of topics is covered including: Population dynamics, Infectious diseases, Population genetics and evolution, Dispersal, Molecular and cellular biology, Pattern formation, and Cancer modelling.

This book will appeal to 3rd and 4th year undergraduate students studying mathematical biology.

A background in calculus and differential equations is assumed, although the main results required are collected in the appendices.

A dedicated website accompanies the book and provides further exercises, more detailed solutions to exercises in the book, and links to other useful sites.
