From the reviews: "It serves as a very nice introduction to the literature on modeling social norms ... . The book ... does a nice job balancing between discussing the theory of norms and the particular challenges brought on by modeling social phenomena. ... the book is both a pleasant read and a very nice introduction to the literature." (Ryan Muldoon, Journal of Artificial Societies and Social Simulation, Vol. 17 (1), 2014)
