Introduction to Network Thermodynamics and Relational Systems Theory - Applications to Complex Systems

Based upon the work of thought leaders in systems biology, Introduction to Network Thermodynamics and Relational Systems Theory discusses the use of a single general network approach to all the dynamic aspects of living systems, from the molecular to the ecosystem level. Accessible to multiple audiences of differing backgrounds, the text offers a computer simulation package to complement coverage. The author's work has deep implications for the future of biomedical science as the result of breaking living systems down into smaller parts creates the need to synthesize models of the whole.
