1Samara State Medical University, Samara, Russia.
Abstract:
Main concepts of "Mathematical modeling of ethanol kinetics" monograph by G.V. Nedugov were analyzed in the article covering relevance, scientific and practical significance. It has been shown that comprehensive analysis of existing and proposed by the author mathematical models for assessing ethanol kinetics presented in the article is a significant contribution to the scientific and practical base of forensic medicine. The possibilities of mathematical models' effective application as a practical solution of forensic medical tasks based on objective mathematical methods were noted. Undoubtedly, the monograph is interesting not only for forensic doctors but also for other specialists of medical and biological sphere.
