Reviews
'Henrik Jensen has produced a masterpiece - describing complexity science from the perspective of a universal theory applicable to many different subject areas, and based on fundamental theoretical principles. A clear virtue of the exposition is that many different topics relevant for complex systems are first treated in an easy-going introductory way, while concrete mathematical models and applications are then provided in the second part of the book. This is a well-thought-through textbook that presents complexity science as a whole, rather than as a collection of single topics.' Christian Beck, Queen Mary University of London

Synopsis
Ecosystems, the human brain, ant colonies, and economic networks are all complex systems displaying collective behaviour, or emergence, beyond the sum of their parts. Complexity science is the systematic investigation of these emergent phenomena, and stretches across disciplines, from physics and mathematics, to biological and social sciences. This introductory textbook provides detailed coverage of this rapidly growing field, accommodating readers from a variety of backgrounds, and with varying levels of mathematical skill. Part I presents the underlying principles of complexity science, to ensure students have a solid understanding of the conceptual framework. The second part introduces the key mathematical tools central to complexity science, gradually developing the mathematical formalism, with more advanced material provided in boxes. A broad range of end of chapter problems and extended projects offer opportunities for homework assignments and student research projects, with solutions available to instructors online. Key terms are highlighted in bold and listed in a glossary for easy reference, while annotated reading lists offer the option for extended reading and research., This introductory textbook provides detailed coverage of the rapidly growing field of complexity science and accommodates readers from a wide variety of backgrounds, and with varying levels of mathematical skill. The book contains a broad range of end of chapter problems and extended projects, with solutions available to instructors online.

- n***y (190)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseI don't like how the product was shipped, the box was completely crushed during shipping and my heart sank a bit because I just knew all of the books were going to be damaged, however, the books being shrink wrapped to a piece of cardboard saved them all and despite what the box looked like (no photos unfortunatly) the books are prestine. Very happy with the collection. Saving seller for future purchases.
