Chance in Biology: Using Probability to Explore Nature
Mark Denny
Life is a chancy proposition: from the movement of molecules to the age at which we die, chance plays a key role in the natural world. This book helps readers to apply the probability theory needed to make sense of chance events - using examples from ocean waves to spiderwebs, in fields ranging from molecular mechanics to evolution.
