Abstract

Digital rules are a hallmark of a mature science. Protein associations are the elementary events in biology when examined at the molecular level. This book attempts to develop digital rules for interactions involving proteins. We begin with a sketch of some of the main ideas that the book will cover. This is not an outline but rather is a narrative that introduces the main goals and challenges to be addressed and gives a glimpse of some of the major advances.
