The fun, easy way to get up to speed on biophysics concepts, principles, and practices
One
of the most diverse of modern scientific disciplines, biophysics
applies methods and technologies from physics to the study of biological
systems and phenomena, from the human nervous system to soil erosion to
global warming. What are the best options for satisfying the world's
growing energy demands? How can we feed the world's growing population?
How can we contain, or reverse, global warming? How can we vouchsafe a
plentiful supply of potable water for future generations? These are
among the critical questions to which biophysicists work to provide
answers.
- Biophysics courses are increasingly taken by

pharmacology, agriculture,and many more
- Provides a friendly, unintimidating overview of the material covered in a typical college-level biophysics course
- A
one-stop reference, course supplement and exam preparation tool for
university students currently enrolled in an introductory biophysics
courses
- An indispensable resource for those studying the
natural sciences, biological sciences, and physics, as well as math,
statistics,computer science, pharmacology and many other disciplines
- The
current job market for people well versed in biophysics is very strong,
