This software individual, or "agent," is endowed with distinct emotional/affective, cognitive/deliberative, and social modules. Grounded in contemporary neuroscience, these internal components interact to generate observed, often far-from-rational, individual behavior. When multiple agents of this new type move and interact spatially, they collectively generate an astonishing range of dynamics spanning the fields of social conflict, psychology, public health, law, network science, and economics.Epstein weaves a computational tapestry with threads from Plato, Hume, Darwin, Pavlov, Smith, Tolstoy, Marx, James, and Dostoevsky, among others. This transformative synthesis of social philosophy, cognitive neuroscience, and agent-based modeling will fascinate scholars and students of every stripe. Epstein's computer programs are provided in the book or on its Princeton University Press website, along with movies of his "computational parables.?Agent_Zero is a signal departure in what it includes (e.g., a new synthesis of neurally grounded internal modules), what it eschews (e.g., standard behavioral imitation), the phenomena it generates (from genocide to financial panic), and the modeling arsenal it offers the scientific community. For generative social science, Agent_Zero presents a groundbreaking vision and the tools to realize it. 410 0$aPrinceton Studies in Complexity 606 $aSocial sciences$xComputer simulation 606 $aSocial sciences$xMathematical models 610 $aAgent_Zero. 610 $aLatané-Darley experiment. 610 $aRescorla-Wagner model. 610 $aaffective component. 610 $aagent-based modeling. 610 $abounded rationality. 610 $acivil violence. 610 $acognitive component. 610 $acognitive neuroscience. 610 $acomputational model. 610 $aconditioning. 610 $aconnection strength. 610 $adisposition. 610 $adispositional contagion. 610 $aeconomics. 610 $aendogenous destructive radii. 610 $aextensions. 610 $aextinction. 610 $afear. 610 $afight vs. flight. 610 $agenerative minimalism. 610 $agenerative social science. 610 $ahealth behavior. 610 $amathematical model. 610 $amemory. 610 $amutual escalation spirals. 610 $amutual escalation. 610 $anetwork science. 610 $anetwork structure. 610 $aneuroscience. 610 $anumerical cartography. 610 $apassions. 610 $aprices. 610 $aprobability estimation. 610 $aprobability. 610 $apublic health. 610 $areason. 610 $areplicability. 610 $asocial component. 610 $asocial conflict. 610 $asocial influence. 610 $asocial philosophy. 610 $asoftware. 610 $atheoretical entity. 615 0$aSocial sciences$xComputer simulation. 615 0$aSocial sciences$xMathematical models. 676 $a300.1 686 $aST 650$2rvk 700 $aEpstein$b Joshua M.$f1951-$0725113 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910811762603321 996 $aAgent zero$93998781 997 $aUNINA
