Mathematical Tools for Understanding Infectious Disease Dynamics

Mathematical modeling is critical to our understanding of how infectious diseases spread at the individual and population levels. This book explains how to translate biological assumptions into mathematics to construct useful and consistent models, and how to use the biological interpretation and mathematical reasoning to analyze these models.
