  • Part I: Physical & Mathematical Foundations (Ch. 1-4) - Lays down scaling, ODEs/PDEs, statistical mechanics, and thermal energy scales ($E_{\text{th}} = k_B T$).
  • Part II: Water, Solutions & Molecular Energetics (Ch. 5-8) - Covers hydrophobic effects, Poisson-Boltzmann electrostatics, diffusion, and binding kinetics.
  • Part III: Macromolecular Structure & Dynamics (Ch. 9-12) - Explores protein folding, DNA elasticity/supercoiling, polymer physics, and molecular dynamics.
  • Part IV: Membranes & Interfacial Biophysics (Ch. 13-16) - Details lipid phase behavior, Helfrich bending energy, and ion channel gating.
  • Part V: Molecular Machines, Reactions & Energy Conversion (Ch. 17-20) - Analyzes catalytic perfection, chemiosmotic coupling, molecular motors, and central dogma kinetics.
  • Part VI: Cellular Mechanics & Motility (Ch. 21-24) - Covers active gels, cell mechanics, low-Reynolds-number swimming, and microfluidics.
  • Part VII: Electrical, Sensory & Neural Biophysics (Ch. 25-28) - Covers Hodgkin-Huxley dynamics, synaptic transmission, sensory transduction, and cardiovascular mechanics.
  • Part VIII: Biological Information, Networks & Collective Organisation (Ch. 29-32) - Focuses on non-equilibrium thermodynamics, Shannon information, stochastic gene expression, and active matter / Turing patterns.
  • Part IX: Experimental, Computational & Integrative Biophysics (Ch. 33-35) - Reviews structural biophysics (Cryo-EM, NMR, Optical Tweezers), super-resolution microscopy, multiscale modeling, and synthetic cell design.
