Praise for the First Edition: A remarkable contribution...it is not often that one finds, in the same chapter, a coherent and complementary discussion of the pumping heart, spruce budworm infestations, and terrestrial magnetic field reversal...stimulating and informative. --A.A. Barnes, McMaster University, in Physics in Canada
