Praise for Alternate Realities Mathematical Models of Nature and Man "â ¦covers the major topics completely and accurately within the context of current knowledge. Indeed, to my knowledge, there is no book which does so nearly as completely and well." â George Leitmann, University of California, Berkeley "Surveys an extensive amount of modern mathematicsâ ¦introduces and outlines some of these basic modern ideas for the non-specialist." â Donald G. Saari, Northwestern University "A sophisticated and modern text on mathematical modellingâ ¦much more comprehensive than any of its competitors currently on the market." â George Klir, State University of New York at Binghamton "Castiâ ™s approach is fearless in constructing conceptual mappings between reality and mathematical notions. The book is pioneering in nature." â Myron B. Allen, University of Wyoming

An Instructor's Manual presenting detailed solutions to all the problems in the book is available from the Wiley editorial department.
