    GEOMETRY IN PRESENT DAY SCIENCE
    Proceedings of the Conference
    University of Aarhus, Denmark, 16 – 18 January 1998

    edited by Ole E Barndorff-Nielsen (University of Aarhus, Denmark) & Eva B Vedel Jensen (University of Aarhus, Denmark)

    This proceedings volume focusses on the applications of geometry in present day science. It contains contributions from a variety of fields, including biology, computer science, mathematics, medicine, physics and stochastics.
