Book Description:
|
An interdisciplinary investigation of how and why things collapse, ranging from governments to species, markets and structures. The author explores the mathematics behind six fundamental processes that lead to such collapses. The exposition assumes minimal mathematical background and should appeal to readers from a wide range of fields.
