Hundreds of meticulously crafted mathematical problems and puzzles in this book are incorporated into fascinating stories about our world. These wor(l)d problems are grouped by their mathematical concepts such that the titles of sections and chapters combine both mathematical and applied terms, hinting at the topics covered. Detailed solutions conclude each section.

Following in the success of the authors’ previous book, USA Through the Lens of Mathematics, this text contributes to the novel pedagogical call for a more multidisciplinary approach in education. The various types of questions posed in The World through the Lens of Mathematics are stimulating, entertaining, and educational. Their main objective is to provide a thorough review of the fundamental concepts of algebra and geometry, reduce mathematical anxiety, and emphasize the applicability and versatility of mathematics.

Working these problems shatters the barriers between the students and mathematics by encouraging them to look at the subject from a different perspective. Students are simultaneously enriched with new knowledge of historical events, customs, and geography of countries around the world, each one of which is mentioned throughout the pages of this book.

This book covers a wide range of topics within mathematical modelling and the optimization of economic, demographic, technological and environmental phenomena. Each chapter is written by experts in their field and represents new advances in modelling theory and practice. These essays are exemplary of the fruitful interaction between theory and practice when exploring global and local changes.

The unifying theme of the book is the use of mathematical models and optimization methods to describe age-structured populations in economy, demography, technological change, and the environment. Emphasis is placed on deterministic dynamic models that take age or size structures, delay effects, and non-standard decision variables into account. In addition, the contributions deal with the age structure of assets, resources, and populations under study. Interdisciplinary modelling has enormous potential for discovering new insights in global and regional development.

Optimal Control of Age-structured Populations in Economy, Demography, and the Environment is a rich and excellent source of information on state-of-the-art modelling expertise and references. The book provides the necessary mathematical background for readers from different areas, such as applied sciences, management sciences and operations research, which helps guide the development of practical models. As well as this the book also surveys the current practice in applied modelling and looks at new research areas for a general mathematical audience. This book will be of interest primarily to researchers, postgraduate students, as well as a wider scientific community, including those focussing on the subjects of applied mathematics, environmental sciences, economics, demography, management, and operations research.

Updated to textbook form by popular demand, this second edition discusses diverse mathematical models used in economics, ecology, and the environmental sciences with emphasis on control and optimization. It is intended for graduate and upper-undergraduate course use, however, applied mathematicians, industry practitioners, and a vast number of interdisciplinary academics will find the presentation highly useful.Core topics of this text are:· Economic growth and technological development· Population dynamics and human impact on the environment· Resource extraction and scarcity· Air and water contamination· Rational management of the economy and environment· Climate change and global dynamicsThe step-by-step approach taken is problem-based and easy to follow. The authors aptly demonstrate that the same models may be used to describe different economic and environmental processes and that similar investigation techniques are applicable to analyze variousmodels. Instructors will appreciate the substantial flexibility that this text allows while designing their own syllabus. Chapters are essentially self-contained and may be covered in full, in part, and in any order.

Appropriate one- and two-semester courses include, but are not limited to, Applied Mathematical Modeling, Mathematical Methods in Economics and Environment, Models of Biological Systems, Applied Optimization Models, and Environmental Models. Prerequisites for the courses are Calculus and, preferably, Differential Equations.
