An introduction to the physics of amorphous solids and related disordered condensed matter systems. It explains important concepts from statistical mechanics such as percolation, random walks, fractals and spin glasses. It also includes material on topics in the field of disordered systems such as gels, driven systems, and growing length scales.

The sixth edition of this highly successful textbook provides a detailed introduction to Monte Carlo simulation in statistical physics, which deals with the computer simulation of many-body systems in condensed matter physics and related fields of physics and beyond (traffic flows, stock market fluctuations, etc.).

This book deals with the computer simulation of many-body systems in condensed-matter physics and related fields of physics, chemistry and beyond. It describes the theoretical background to several variants of these Monte Carlo methods.
