Reviews

From the reviews:

"Contributions in this book show how further computer science can get much further in capturing and rigorously describing interaction dynamics within and between organizations. … the book poses many questions and provides interesting innovative answers that are of use for computer scientists, but also for economists, policy makers, philosophers, sociologists and cognitive scientists. The book preface writers claim that ‘the result is a well-balanced collection of high-quality papers that really can be called representative of the field at the moment’. I do agree with them." (Paolo Turrini, JASSS, February, 2007)
