Book Description:

This book introduces nonequilibrium statistical physics via lattice models. Early chapters examine the basic driven lattice gas and how this simple system seems to model certain natural phenomena. Possible theoretical approaches are considered and absorbing-state transitions are discussed in detail. Later chapters explore dynamic disorder, multiparticle rules, nonunique absorbing-states and conservation laws.
