Summary

Elementary Maths for Biologists is an exciting new textbook written for first year life science students. The book helps students revise their school-level maths and extend it into biological applications. Richly illustrated with four-color photos and diagrams, it avoids the traditional maths book presentation. Each new mathematical concept is carefully explained and its relevance to biology highlighted with examples and illustrations. Biology in the 21st century has become a more quantitative discipline than many students expect. Elementary Maths for Biologists is essential reading for anyone needing to bridge that gap.
