Computational Molecular Biology is an emerging discipline which is increasingly engaging the attention of computer scientists, mathematicians, and biologists. This text covers a broad range of algorithmic and combinatorial topics and shows how they are connected to molecular biology and biotechnology. The book has substantial “computational biology without formulas” component that gives biological motivation and computational ideas in a simple way. This simplified presentation of biology and computing aims to make the book accessible to computer scientists entering this new area and to biologists who do not have sufficient background for more involved computational techniques. Every chapter has an introductory section that describes both computational and biological ideas without any formulas. The book concentrates on computational ideas rather than details of the algorithms and makes special efforts to present these ideas in an easy-to-understand manner.
