Reviews
'... a modern, careful and authoritative text on Self-Organised Criticality (SOC) ... an excellent reference book on what SOC is and is not with connections to theory (analytical and simulations), experiments, and applications. The foreword by H. J. Jensen nicely describes the controversy surrounding SOC and its history.' Donald T. Jacobs, American Journal of Physics
