Sommario/riassunto

Biophysics is an interdisciplinary subject. This present text discusses the various aspects of Biophysics,giving approximately equal emphasis to these major aspects. It has been thus possible to show the inter -relationship of the different aspects of the subject in a coherent framework .This text has been written to be,as far as is possible ,self contained ,with most equations fully derived and critically discussed. It is supported by a large number of diagrams and micrographs which the



author may feel necessary.
