Using tricks to handle coupled nonlinear dynamical many-body systems, several advancements have already been made in understanding the behavior of markets/economic/social systems and their dynamics. The book intends to provide the reader with updated reviews on such major developments in both econophysics and sociophysics, by leading experts in the respective fields. This is the first book providing a panoramic view of these developments in the last decade.Content: Chapter 1 A Thermodynamic Formulation of Economics (pages 1–33): Juergen MimkesChapter 2 Zero?intelligence Models of Limit?order Markets (pages 35–63): Robin StinchcombeChapter 3 Understanding and Managing the Future Evolution of a Competitive Multi?agent Population (pages 65–98): David M.
