Difference Equations with Public Health Applications

Difference equations are an integral part of the undergraduate and graduate level courses in stochastic processes.  Instruction in difference equations provides solid grounding for strengthening the mathematical skills of the students by providing them with the ability to develop analytical solutions to mathematical and probabilistic prediction models of dynamic systems.  Difference Equations with Public Health Applications  is a new contribution to didactic textbooks in mathematics, offering a contemporary introduction and exploration of difference equations in public health.
