This book evolved from an interdisciplinary graduate course entitled 'Molecular Modeling' developed at New York University. Its primary goal is to stimulate excitement for molecular modeling research while providing grounding in the discipline. Scientists who wish to enter, or become familiar with, the field of biomolecular modeling and simulation may benefit from the broad coverage of problems and approaches.
Very broad overview of the field intended for an interdisciplinary audience Lively discussion of current challenges written in a colloquial style Author is a rising star in this discipline Suitably accessible for beginners and suitably rigorous for experts Features extensive four-color illustrations Appendices featuring homework assignments and reading lists complement the material in the main text Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras

Review of previous edition: I am often asked by physicists, mathematicians and engineers to recommend a book that would be useful to get them started in computational molecular biology. I am also often approached by my colleagues in computational biology to recommend a solid textbook for a graduate course in the area. Tamar Schlick has written the book that I will be recommending to both groups. Tamar has done an amazing job in writing a book that is both suitably accessible for beginners, and suitably rigorous for experts. J. J. Collins, Boston University, USA. Molecular modeling is now an important branch of modern biochemistry. Schlick has brought her unique interdisciplinary expertise to the subject. One of the most distinguished characteristics of the book is that it makes the reading really fun and the material accessible. a crystal clear logical presentation . Schlick has added a unique title to the collection of mathematical biology textbooks . a valuable introduction to the field of computational molecular modeling. It is a unique textbook . Hong Qian, SIAM Review, 2005.
