In this view, a ‘crisis’ is a macroscopic phenomenon which spontaneously emerges from the web of microscopic interactions. Agent-Based Models (ABMs) are the analytical and computational tools necessary to explore the properties of a complex economy. — location: [299](kindle://book?action=open&asin=B07B7LX3VM&location=299) ^ref-22199 --- With the passing of years, however, agent-based (AB) tools have been refined. This book is a guide to the main issues which an interested reader may encounter when approaching this field. We hope this will help in nudging a new generation of curious minds to explore the fascinating field of complexity. — location: [307](kindle://book?action=open&asin=B07B7LX3VM&location=307) ^ref-31695 ---
