Publisher's Synopsis
Impulsive Mathematical Models of Endocrine Regulation demonstrates recently-developed mathematical models portraying pulse-modulated regulation in endocrine systems, taking a pragmatic engineering stance by starting with the necessary theoretical background on analytical tools, progressing through a number of mathematical models of increasing complexity, and illustrating the feasibility and fidelity of the mathematical constructs on actual biological data. Compared to a commonplace, theory-oriented book on dynamical systems and control which typically presents a group of design or analysis techniques, the book originates from a real-life problem of fundamental value and introduces mathematical tools that have specifically been devised to solve it.
