How to Build Up a Model.- Differential Equations.- Recurrence Equations.- Chaos.- Spatial Models.- Networks.- Power-Law Distributions.
Dr. Nino Boccara is Professor Emeritus of Physics at the University of Illinois at Chicago, Professor Emeritus of Mathematics at the Ecole Supérieure de Physique et Chimie de la Ville de Paris, and Former Director of Research in Theoretical Physics at the CNRS.
From the reviews of the second edition: "Boccara's approach is firmly based on dynamical systems theory, differential equations, and maps, with a very solid mathematical treatment, cast at times in terms of definitions and theorems. ... The book is very well suited for graduate or advanced undergraduate studies and comes with a problem and solution section at the end of every chapter. ... The book covers in any case a plethora of models and is highly recommendable for everybody wishing to attain a good knowledge of classical complex system theory." (Claudius Gros, SIAM Review, Vol. 53 (4), 2011)
