This book is the result of collaboration among different teams interacting within the framework of a European Research and Training Network on "Modeling, Mathematical Methods and Computer Simulation of Tumor Growth and Therapy." Reviews and articles describe theoretical and experimental approaches, methods, and tools for modeling phenomena at various scales. Early chapters cover subcellular to cellular properties and single cell migration modeling. The next section studies cell interactions with the environment, in particular the role of external mechanical forces and their effects on cell behavior. The next section, covering cellular to multicellular models, presents models of multicellular systems in areas such as developmental biology and cancer invasion, cell populations in extracellular matrix, and embryo development. The book is illustrated with b&w and color images. It will be useful to graduate students, researchers, and professors. Chauvière teaches health informatics at the Health Science Center of the University of Texas. Annotation ©2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
