Reviews

'This is a fascinating, even inspiring, book for the graduate mathematician.' A. H. Harker, Contemporary Physics '... this book is an excellent introduction to mathematical modelling, with a wealth of interesting case studies and lovely mathematics that will appeal to many of its target audience - final year undergraduates, Masters and PhD students working in 'practical' mathematical modelling.' The Mathematical Gazette The editors have done an impressive job of unifying the style, notation, and presentation of these reports, and many read as good short stories for the mathematically initiated....the book is a must for an academic library.
