Book Dynamics Introductory Statisical physics

AI Thread Summary

A search for introductory books on the dynamics of swarms and self-organization highlights a gap in available literature specifically addressing these topics. While there are resources on swarm behavior, the focus on dynamics, particularly in the context of swarm insects, appears limited. Recommendations for physics juniors seeking to understand these concepts may not yield satisfactory results, suggesting a need for more comprehensive texts in this niche area of study.

I am searching for a good book that could be used as an introduction to the dynamics of swarms and maybe their self organization. I am a physics junior and would like something that is decent for that level.

If swarm means the swarm insect, then I'm afraid that there may not be any book at all on the dynamics of swarms. You may find a book on swarm, but not on their dynamics.

Thread 'Ashcroft and Mermin: revised edition'

Hi, I have notice that Ashcroft, Mermin and Wei worked at a revised edition of the original solid state physics book (here). The book, however, seems to be never available. I have also read that the reason is related to some disputes related to copyright. Do you have any further information about it? Did you have the opportunity to get your hands on this revised edition? I am really curious about it, also considering that I am planning to buy the book in the near future... Thanks!
