Why Society is a Complex Matter

Meeting Twenty-first Century Challenges with a New Kind of Science

by Philip Ball ...

Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
Society is complicated. But this book argues that this does not place it beyond the reach of a science that can help to explain and perhaps even to predict social behaviour. As a system made up of many interacting agents – people, groups, institutions and governments, as well as physical and technological structures such as roads and computer networks – society can be regarded as a complex system. ...
