A multidisciplinary examination of the phenomenon of collaboration to expand knowledge and inform future activities. A multidisciplinary examination of the phenomenon of collaboration to expand knowledge and inform future activities. Human existence depends critically on how well diverse social, cultural and political groups can collaborate. Yet the phenomenon of collaboration itself is ill-defined and badly understood, and there is no straightforward formula for its successful realization. In The Nature and Dynamics of Collaboration, edited by Paul F. M. J. Verschure, experts from wide-ranging disciplines examine how human collaboration arises, breaks down, and potentially recovers. They explore the different contexts, boundary conditions, and drivers of collaboration to expand understanding of the underlying dynamic, multiscale processes in an effort to increase chances for ethical, sustainable, and productive collaboration in the future. This volume is accompanied by twenty-four podcasts, which provide insights from real-world examples. Contributors Asaf Bachrach, Kevin Bauer, Jenna Bednar, Eric D.
