This book develops the mathematical tools essential for students in the life sciences to describe interacting systems and predict their behavior. From predator-prey populations in an ecosystem, to hormone regulation within the body, the natural world abounds in dynamical systems that affect us profoundly. Complex feedback relations and counter-intuitive responses are common in nature; this book develops the quantitative skills needed to explore these interactions.

Differential equations are t...

'Strategie = Executie' is genomineerd voor het 'Managementboek van het Jaar 2017'

Strategie = Executie. Sneller verbeteren, vernieuwen én innoveren in een nieuwe tijd

Organisaties staan midden in het nieuwe normaal, waarin volatiliteit troef is. Organisaties verstoren zelf of worden verstoord. Continuïteit is geen vanzelfsprekendheid meer. In deze tijd geldt maar één wet: STRATEGIE = EXECUTIE.

'Strategie = Executie' is het laatste competitieve voordeel. Een strategie is net zo briljant als h...
