The new edition of Mathematical Modeling, the survey text of choice for mathematical modeling courses, adds ample instructor support and online delivery for solutions manuals and software ancillaries.

From genetic engineering to hurricane prediction, mathematical models guide much of the decision making in our society. If the assumptions and methods underlying the modeling are flawed, the outcome can be disastrously poor. With mathematical modeling growing rapidly in so many scientific and technical disciplines, Mathematical Modeling, Fourth Edition provides a rigorous treatment of the subject. The book explores a range of approaches including optimization models, dynamic models and probability models.

  • Offers increased support for instructors, including MATLAB material as well as other on-line resources
  • Features new sections on time series analysis and diffusion models
  • Provides additional problems with international focus such as whale and dolphin populations, plus updated optimization problems
Industry Reviews
"Meerschaert presents a general introduction to mathematical modeling for advanced undergraduate or beginning graduate students in mathematics and closely related fields.He does.challenge students to use all the mathematics they have learned as he covers modeling problems in optimization, dynamical systems, and stochastic processes."--Reference & Research Book News, October 2013 "I think this is the best book in its genre. I haven't been tempted to use another. The mathematics in it is interesting, useful, and still within reach of typical undergraduates." --John E. Doner, Department of Mathematics, University of California, Santa Barbara
