Enzyme Kinetics for Systems Biology

A text book for undergraduates classes in systems biology and a reference guide for graduates and other professionals (Current Print Version: 1.04).

This text is geared towards those who need a reference or classroom text book that describes the various rate laws one can use to build a computer model of a cellular network. The text includes some topics not found in a typical enzyme kinetics text book, these include chapters on elasticities, generalized rate laws and the kinetic laws that one would use to build gene regulatory networks. The book is priced at $9.95 for the ebook or $39.95 for the paperback. For the ebook version there are free updates until the second edition is released.
