This ground-breaking Handbook presents a state-of-the-art exploration of entropy, complexity, and spatial dynamics from fundamental theoretical, empirical and methodological perspectives. It considers how foundational theories can contribute to new advances, including novel modeling and empirical insights at different sectoral, spatial, and temporal scales. With the help of leading experts worldwide, the Handbook examines how and to what extent entropic and non-entropic forces and processes in complex spatial socio-economic systems shape and are shaped by their structure and dynamics....

This innovative approach to landscape modeling begins by acknowledging landscape phenomena as 'self-organizing' manifestations of human activity. It presents state-of-the-art techniques for mapping the environments that will emerge from today's urban sprawl.
