Synopsis
The first edition of this book was greeted with broad interest from readers en- gaged in various disciplines of biophysics. I received many stimulating and en- couraging responses, however, some of the book's reviewers wanted to stress the fact that an extensive literature of network theory was not included or reported in the book. But the main aspect of the book is intended to be substantive rather than methodical: networks simply serve as a remedy for doing some first steps in analysing and modelling complex biological systems. For an advanced stage in the investigation of a particular system it may be appropriate to replace the pheno- menological network method by more detailed techniques like statistical equations or computer simulations. According to this intention, the second edition of the book has been enlarged by further biological examples for network analysis, not by more network theory. There is a completely new section on a network model for photoreception. For this section I am obliged to J. Tiedge who did most of the detailed calculation and to my colleague Professor Stieve with whom we have had a very fruitful cooperation. Also I would like to mention that this work has been sponsored by the "Deutsche Forschungsgemei nschaft" i n the "Sonderforschungsberei ch 160". Recent results for excitable systems represented by feedback networks have also been included in the second edition, especially for limit cycle networks., The first edition of this book was greeted with broad interest from readers en­ gaged in various disciplines of biophysics.

    I had a reason for buying this book over some others on the same topic, however I didn't really know what I was buying. This book is awesome and the seller did everything right including communication. Why has eBay taken that word out of the things to be positive about? It's so important imho! Description, value, +++packaging and shipping were all perfect. It even arrived in the 49th state in record time. A Big Thank You, and more than 5 stars if I could.

    shipping was good, packing was good, The bible was as described, however it is far smaller then I imagined. I'm going to keep it anyway. Price was fair. I would buy again however I would contact the seller to clarify what their definition of small is

    Thanks for accepting my offer and selling me your book and allowing me ti add this to my library and collection for my non-profit organization helping others with education, history and more. The shipping was good, the packaging was good, communication was excellent. I highly recommend this seller and hope we can do business again in the future.
