Treats the spreading phenomenon in its universal context
Presents mathematics (including computer programming) on an appropirate level so that essentially any reader will appreciate it as a help and useful guide
The individual chapters address a broad range of readers from archaeology, epidemics, linguistics, sociology, engineering, natural sciences and mathematics
