A Bibliography of Mathematical Biology

  • Conference paper
Mathematical Problems in Biology

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Biomathematics ((LNBM,volume 2))

  • 532 Accesses

Abstract

This bibliography was compiled by the author during the spring of 1973 and was distributed to students attending a graduate level course in biomathematics. References to areas in biophysics (for example ion transport across real and synthetic membranes), cell biology (growth, function and form) and the nervous system are not included here; a more comprehensive bibliography would, of course, need to include these areas. The bibliography does not contain references to scientific papers. The listings are by year of publication, the oldest publications being at the top and the latest are at the bottom. Within each year the listings are by author alphabetically.
