A biophysicist reveals the hidden unity behind nature's breathtaking complexityThe form and function of a sprinting cheetah are quite unlike those of a rooted tree. A human being is very different from a bacterium or a zebra. The living world is a realm of dazzling variety, yet …
This book introduces the concepts and practical tools necessary to understand the behavior of biological macromolecules at a quantitative level. It begins by describing biochemical phenomena using principles of classical and statistical thermodynamics. Unlike other books, thiste…

This books aims to demystify fundamental biophysics for students in the health and biosciences required to study physics and to understand the mechanistic behaviour of biosystems. The text is well supplemented by worked conceptual examples that will constitute the main source fo…
Furry logic: the physics of animal life
by Durrani, Matin, Kalaugher, Liz
fromBloomsbury Sigma
'Furry Logic' looks in detail at the animals that use cool physics in weird and intriguing ways as part of their daily battle to survive. It details the role of physics in the lives of a number of animals, as uncovered by scientists researching in the field
Biophysics is a new way of looking at living matter. It uses quantitative experimental and theoretical methods to open a new window for studying and understanding life processes. This textbook gives compact introductions to the basics of the field, including molecular cell biolo…
