Dr. Matthias Ruth is a full professor with appointments in the School of Public Policy and Urban Affairs and the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Northeastern University.

Dr. Bruce Hannon is Jubilee Professor (Emeritus) of Liberal Arts and Sciences at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign.

This updated volume teaches computer modeling of biological systems using models created with STELLA software

Examples of systems modeled include cell development, the beating heart, and the spread and control of epidemics

Includes easy-to-use software modules that require no prior experience to use

Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
