Phase Transitions (Primers in Complex Systems), Princeton University Press
 









Summary:        Phase transitions - changes between different states of
organization in a complex system - have long helped to explain physics concepts,
such as why water freezes into a solid or boils to become a gas. How might phase
transitions shed light on important problems in biological and ecological
complex systems? Exploring the origins and implications of sudden changes in
nature and society, this book examines different dynamical behaviors in a broad
range of complex systems. Using many compelling examples, from ant colonies to
human language, the book illustrates the power of simple models to reveal how
phase transitions occur.
