Opis

Presents an overview of how complex systems from a variety of fields can be modelled using the principles of quantum mechanics.

Recenzje

'The target audience for the book consists of scientists of the fields mentioned in the title (biologists,ecologists,sociologists); they could find - beyond the specific applications of the book - new directions and methods, through quantum mechanics, in approaching problems in their areas of expertise; even more so, they could open new application horizons. Prospective readers are also quantum experts, while finally, the volume could be of interest to those involved in physics, mathematics, and computer science.' Nikolaos E. Myridis, Contemporary Physics
