“Ilachinski is a wonderful writer, taking his time with each subject and thus making this book accessible to the nonscientist with a basic understanding of complexity.”
“… its detailed discussion of agent-based modeling will make it a useful resource for students of other domains. Its detailed discussion of a software package that users can obtain at no cost makes it a potential resource for either self-study or classroom instruction in system modeling. For members of the military modeling community, it promises to be an indispensable resource on the state of the art, and an important technical foundation for future research.”
“This is the first example of a book designed for a wide audience dealing exclusively and in detail with their application to warfare … it is easy to imagine researchers from other disciplines or even application-minded sectors such as computer game designers getting a good deal of value from it … this book has much worthy of recommendation and it is certainly unique at the present time. It would be surprising if in future years this book is not seen as a landmark publication in military OR circles.”
