Exploring Patterns in Nature: Computer Simulabs and Hands on Activities

This set of materials for doing experiments and using computer simulations in science draws upon a variety of fields: biology, chemistry, earth science, and physics. The experiments are unified through the theme of identifying random behavior at the microscopic level in nature, which lead to the formation of patterns at the macroscopic level. With an accompanying CD-ROM and rich web site this book provides interesting laboratory experiments and computer simulations through which readers can learn science.Stanley, H. Eugene is the author of 'Exploring Patterns in Nature: Computer Simulabs and Hands on Activities', published 2002 under ISBN 9780387989136 and ISBN 0387989137.
