Reviews

Dr Kishore Chandra Dash, the author of the present book has done painstaking work by writing this excellent book. The book is written in simple words, and does not need much of mathematics and physics to understand. From this point of view, the author has achieved his goal, as promised in the 'Preface'. The Story of Econophysics will be useful not only for general readers who are interested in social, economic, political issues, but also for young research scholars interested in econophysics because the book gives cue for further research in this area.
