Interaction, Evolution and Chaos in Space

Viac o knihe

Exploring the intersection of natural and social sciences, the book delves into spatial interaction models through the lens of 'social physics.' It traces their origins, history, and relevance, emphasizing the necessity of a behavioral foundation for effective spatial systems analysis. The text highlights significant contributions from gravity and entropy theories, laying the groundwork for interaction models. Part A focuses on micro-based disaggregate choice models as essential tools for understanding spatial systems, advocating for a unified analytical framework across disciplines.
