Oxygen Transport in Biological Systems : Modelling of Pathways from Environment to Cell (Society for Experimental Biology Seminar Series)
Editorial Reviews
Review
'I recommend this book to anyone interested in the most recent developments in morphometry and modeling of gas transport systems.' Science
Book Description
The study of oxygen transfer in animals and plants represents a large and diverse field of research, covering not only different levels of organisation ranging from the whole organism through to subcellular organelles, and different mechanisms such as convection and simple or facilitated diffusion, but also, of necessity, invoking diverse methodological approaches. This book offers a range of perspectives on the modelling of oxygen transport, covering the broadest possible spectrum of disciplines within the field and emphasising the different methodological approaches used, so encouraging the communication of ideas from individual, often very specialised fields, to a wider audience. The volume presents an authoritative and stimulating review of theoretical and methodological developments in this exciting field of study and concludes with a critical evaluation of the most recent data, providing a unique synthesis from which the research can move forward.
