1 author picked Models of Society and Complex Systems as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I appreciated how this book took on the challenge of applying advanced mathematical modeling and simulation techniques to gain new insights into the social evolution of norms and institutions in societies, which is a critical topic in many fields, including conflict and peace economics.
I learned much from the book’s coverage of selected conflict and peace topics such as riots, revolutions, the 2010 Arab Spring movement, and the social evolution of cooperation. I especially like how the mathematical models in the book are described intuitively using wonderfully imaginative diagrams.
In this way, both the mathematically and non-mathematically inclined can come…
From Charles' list on the economics of conflict and peace.
