Modeling Complex Systems

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)
