In this paper, the peristaltic flow of rheologically complex physiological fluids when modelled by a non-Newtonian Casson fluid in a two-dimensional channel is considered. A perturbation series method of solution of the stream function for zeroth and first order in amplitude ratio is sought. Of interest is the difference between peristaltic transport of Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids. It is found...
