Reaction kinetics plays a central role in systems and synthetic biology. This monograph introduces students to some of the modern topics in kinetics that these fields employ. The book starts with an introduction to mass-action kinetics followed by chapters on stochastic kinetics, elasticities, enzyme kinetics, generalized rate laws, cooperativity, allostery and gene regulatory kinetics. The text can also be used as a reference guide for graduates and other researchers.
