This book deals with all aspects of Monte Carlo simulation of complex physical systems encountered in condensed-matter physics and statistical mechanics as well as in related fields, for example polymer science and lattice gauge theory." "This book will be bought by graduate students who have to deal with computer simulations in their research, as well as by postdoctoral researchers, in both physics and physical chemistry. It can be used as a textbook for graduate courses on computer simulations in physics and related disciplines.
