It provides necessary theory and examples for students and practicioners who will work in fields where significant information must be extracted automatically from images. The book should be a useful resource book for professionals, a text for both undergraduate and beginning graduate courses, and a resource for enrichment of college or even high school projects. Our goals were to provide a basic set of fundamental concepts and algorithms and also discuss some of the exciting evolving application areas.

A first major defect lies in its insistence that (real world) problem solv- ing must be the focus of school mathematics ([N1], p.6) and the particular way this decision is implemented. A second major defect is that the floor of mathematics education has been set far too low (cf. [N1], p.9).

The topic of pharmacology usually escapes the attention of many college students by virtue of the fact that pharmacology itself is rarely taught on the undergraduate level. It generally is reserved for postbaccalaureate students who are enrolled in health curricula associated with medicine, dentistry, nursing, and the veterinary sciences; however, certain upper level undergraduates are interested in the subject. This book is the product of teaching undergraduates the principles of pharmacology over the last 20 years.

The original motivation for writing this book was rather personal. The first author, in the course of his teaching career in the Department of Pure Mathematics and Mathematical Statistics (DPMMS), University of Cambridge, and St John’s College, Cambridge, had many painful experiences when good (or even brilliant) students, who were interested in the subject of mathematics and its applications and who performed well during their first academic year, stumbled or nearly failed in the exams. This led to great frustration, which was very hard to overcome in subsequent undergraduate years.
