Reviews

“The approach of this book is qualitative and pragmatic, a clear and engaging presentational style leading swiftly to well-defined objectives stated ahead of time. … The mathematical scaffolding supports the presentation … which makes the book as suitable for social scientists, biologists, ecologists, or for other natural scientists willing to investigate the complexity of living systems via a quantitative approach, as it is for mathematicians who are willing to acquire stronger modelling foundations.” (Paul Georgescu, zbMATH1381.92001, 2018) “A Quest Towards a Mathematical Theory of Living Systems should prove to be aninteresting book, especially for those with interests in collective behavior, emergent phenomenon, and mathematical approaches to studying such phenomena. … I recommend this book as a point of entry into this popular field of current research in the mathematical life sciences.” (Jason M. Graham, MAA Reviews, December, 2017)
