See our review of the first edition of this textbook.  In this second edition, the overall structure and content of the book remain largely unchanged.  This book introduces agent-based modeling and analysis in the context of the NetLogo programming language and development environment.  The authors have updated some explanations in light of their experience with the first edition, corrected errors, and updated the book to reflect changes from version 5 to version 6.0.4 of NetLogo.  


Brian Borchers is a professor of mathematics at New Mexico Tech.  He teaches courses in mathematical modeling, discrete event simulation, and optimization.
