520    Dynamics of Complex Systems is the first text describing 
       the modern unified study of complex systems. It is 
       designed for upper-undergraduate/beginning graduate-level 
       students, and covers a broad range of applications in a 
       broad array of disciplines. A central goal of this text is
       to develop models and modeling techniques that are useful 
       when applied to all complex systems. This is done by 
       adopting both analytic tools, including statistical 
       mechanics and stochastic dynamics, and computer simulation
       techniques, such as cellular automata and Monte Carlo. In 
       four sets of paired, self-contained chapters, Yaneer Bar-
       Yam discusses complex systems in the context of neural 
       networks, protein folding, living organisms, and finally, 
       human civilization itself.
