From the reviews: "The book provides an elementary introduction to the collective dynamics for researchers and graduate students in a variety of disciplines, such as physics, chemistry, biology and social sciences." (Zentralblatt MATH, 1011, 2003) "This book constitutes a reference of invaluable usefulness for all researchers interested in the study of collective phenomena. ... Moreover, each topic is presented in a form which, without neglecting all mathematical details, allows for an immediate understanding of its deep conceptual grounds ... . This book is highly recommended also because it contains discussions of some subjects which it would be difficult to find elsewhere." (E. Pessa, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2004 c)
