COMPLEXITY, METASTABILITY AND NONEXTENSIVITY
31st Workshop of the International School of Solid State Physics
Erice, Sicily, Italy, 20 - 26 July 2004

edited by C Beck (University of London, UK), G Benedek (Università di Milano Bicocca, Italy), A Rapisarda (Università di Catania, Italy) & C Tsallis (CBPF, Brazil & Santa Fe Institute for Complex Systems, New Mexico, USA)

A broad introduction and overview of current interdisciplinary studies on complexity, this volume is an ideal starting point for scientists and graduate students who wish to enter the field. The book features a diverse collection of the latest research work not found in a single volume elsewhere.

Among the highly regarded contributors to the volume are the 2004 Boltzmann medalists E G D Cohen and H E Stanley; G Parisi, Boltzmann medalist in 1992 and Dirac medalist in 1999; and numerous internationally renowned experts, such as S Abe, F T Arecchi, J-P Bouchaud, A Coniglio, W Ebeling, P Grigolini, R Mantegna, M Paczuski, A Robledo, L Pietronero, A Vespignani, and T Vicsek.
