Review: "This authoritative book details all the common approaches to social simulation to provide social scientists with an appreciation of the literature and allow those with some programming skills to create their own simulations." "The book is an essential tool for social scientists in a wide range of fields, particularly sociology, economics, anthropology, geography, organizational theory, political science, social policy, cognitive psychology and cognitive science. It will also appeal to computer scientists interested in distributed artificial intelligence, multi-agent systems and agent technologies."--BOOK JACKET.
