John H. Miller is professor of economics and social sciences at Carnegie Mellon University.
Scott E. Page is professor of complex systems, political science, and economics at the University of Michigan. He is the author of "The Difference" (Princeton).
This book provides the first clear, comprehensive, and accessible account of complex adaptive social systems, by two of the field's leading authorities. Such systems - whether political parties, stock markets, or ant colonies - present some of the most intriguing theoretical and practical challenges confronting the social sciences. Engagingly written, and balancing technical detail with intuitive explanations, "Complex Adaptive Systems" focuses on the key tools and ideas that have emerged in the field since the mid-1990s, as well as the techniques needed to investigate such systems. It provides a detailed introduction to concepts such as emergence, self-organized criticality, automata, networks, diversity, adaptation, and feedback. It also demonstrates how complex adaptive systems can be explored using methods ranging from mathematics to computational models of adaptive agents. John Miller and Scott Page show how to combine ideas from economics, political science, biology, physics, and computer science to illuminate topics in organization, adaptation, decentralization, and robustness. They also demonstrate how the usual extremes used in modeling can be fruitfully transcended.
本书总体上是试图去阐明仿真和计算方法对于研究复杂社会科学的意义。 本书的写法是很细节、学术化的,我跳过了很多具体描述网络模型的章节,主要关注了作为一种方法论的动力学仿真能给社会科学带来什么样的视角。 工具和方法塑造着研究者的观点,无论研究者本身愿不愿意承认。...
评分《复杂适应系统(社会生活计算模型导论)》是首部全面、清晰且令人易于理解地阐述复杂适应社会系统的著作,由该领域两位权威学者联袂完成。复杂适应社会系统——不论是“政治党派”、“股票市场”,还是蚂蚁群落——都体现了社会科学在理论上与实践上所面临的一些最有趣的挑战。...
评分下面是我对这本书的粗浅理解和感想,供同好参考: 一、 对于复杂适应社会,已有的模型中的各个主体要么是无知,要么是先知,而复杂系统却介于这两个极端之间,因此本书的角度是任意数量的异质性个体在一个时空受限的动态环境中相互作用。 二、 本书最关键的结论是:复杂系统的...
