"The book by Peter Kloeden and Christian Potzsche meets an important need by addressing a topical and very general problem. ... topics nicely illustrate the wide range of problems in the life sciences where nonautonomous dynamics can be important and, in many cases, is essential for an understanding of observed phenomena. The editors are to be commended for pulling together such a timely and interesting volume." (Peter V. E. McClintock, Contemporary Physics, November, 2014)

• Nonautonomous dynamical systems in the life sciences.- Random dynamical systems with inputs.- Canard theory and excitability.- Stimulus-response reliability of biological networks.- Coupled nonautonomous oscillators.- Multisite mechanisms for ultrasensitivity in signal transduction.- Mathematical concepts in pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics with application to tumor growth.- Viral kinetic modeling of chronic hepatitis C and B infection.- Some classes of stochastic differential equations as an alternative modeling approach to biomedical problems.
