Approaches to Geo-mathematical Modelling: New Tools for Complexity Science

There is a growing need and interest in acquiring knowledge about methods for quantitative computational social science, this book is extensively illustrated with example models that represent elements of the global system covering such topics as trade, migration, security and development aid.  The models and typical research questions are examined to provide an effective toolkit that can not only be applied to particular global systems, but can be more widely used for the modelling of complex systems.
