Mathematical models in population biology and epidemiology / Fred Brauer, Carlos Castillo-Chávez. - Second edition - New York : Springer, c2012. - xxiii, 508 pages : illustrations ; 17 x 25 cm. - Texts in applied mathematics ; 40 .
Includes bibliographical (p. 483-499) and index.
Continuous Population Models -- Discrete Population Models -- Continuous Single-Species Population Models with Delays -- Introduction and Mathematical Preliminaries -- Continuous Models for Two Interacting Populations
This textbook provides an introduction to the field of mathematical biology through the integration of classical applications in ecology with more recent applications to epidemiology, particularly in the context of spread of infectious diseases. It integrates modeling, mathematics, and applications in a semi-rigorous way, stating theoretical results and giving references but not necessarily giving detailed proofs, providing a solid introduction to the field to undergraduates (junior and senior level), graduate students in applied mathematics, ecology, epidemiology or evolutionary biology, sustainability scientists, and to researchers who must routinely read the practical and theoretical results that come from modeling in ecology and epidemiology.
