Mathematics in Nature : Modeling Patterns in the Natural World

Editorial Reviews
Will Wilson, American Scientist
"an excellent resource for bringing a greater variety of patterns into the mathematical study of nature".

Review
Philip J. Davis SIAM News : Read for pleasure and instruction by the select laity who are not afraid of reading between the lines of equations.
Steven Morics MAA Online : One surprising example after another of how mathematics can be used to explain natural phenomena. And what examples!
Yuri V. Rogovchenko Zentralblatt Math (European Mathematical Society) : One of the best contemporary texts on the subject, appealing to a very broad audience.
Brian D. Sleeman Notices of the American Mathematical Association : John Adam's quest is a very simple one: to invite one to look around and observe the wonders of nature.
Choice : Reading this book progressively creates a course in mathematical modeling built around familiar, tangible, human-scale examples.
