Concepts, methods and techniques of statistical physics in the
study of correlated, as well as uncorrelated, phenomena are being
applied ever increasingly in the natural sciences, biology and
economics in an attempt to understand and model the large
variability and risks of phenomena. This is the first textbook
written by a well-known expert that provides a modern up-to-date
introduction for workers outside statistical physics. The emphasis
of the book is on a clear understanding of concepts and methods,
while it also provides the tools that can be of immediate use in
applications. Although this book evolved out of a course for
graduate students, it will be of great interest to researchers and
engineers, as well as to post-docs in geophysics and meteorology.
