From the reviews:
"The tools and techniques of statistical physics are increasingly ... . This volume nicely illustrates some of these accomplishments through an eclectic mix of eighteen articles by some of the key initiators of the new directions. ... The editor's aim was to put together a volume ... . he has been highly successful in this endeavor. Beyond reflecting on progress to date, the articles in many cases point the way to future developments." (Murray Batchelor, The Physicist, Vol. 41 (6), 2004)
