Description: This book is designed to be a practical study in infectious disease dynamics. It offers an easy - to - follow implementation and analysis of mathematical epidemiology. It focuses on recent case studies in order to explore various conceptual mathematical and statistical issues. The dynamics of infectious diseases shows a wide diversity of pattern. Some have locally persistent chains - of - transmission others persist spatially in consumer - resource metapopulations. Some infections are prevalent among the young some among the old and some are age - invariant. Temporally some diseases have little variation in prevalence some have predictable seasonal shifts and others exhibit violent epidemics that may be regular or irregular in their timing. Models and 'models - with - data have proved invaluable for understanding and predicting this diversity and thence help improve intervention and control. Using mathematical models to understand infectious disease dynamics has a very rich history in epidemiology. The field has seen broad expansions of theories as well as a surge in real - life application of mathematics to dynamics and control of infectious disease. The chapters of Epidemics: Models and Data Using R have been organized as follows: chapters 1 - 10 is a mix and match of models data and statistics pertaining to local disease dynamics; chapters 11 - 13 pertains to spatial and spatiotemporal dynamics; chapter 14 highlights similarities between the dynamics of infectious disease and parasitoid - host dynamics; Finally chapters 15 and 16 overview additional statistical methodology useful in studies of infectious disease dynamics. This book can be used as a guide for working with data models and 'models - and - data to understand epidemics and infectious disease dynamics in space and time. All the code and data sets are distributed in the epimdr 2 R package to facilitate the hands - on philosophy of the text.
