"This Handbook is a solid piece of evidence of the extent of the application of computational methods in contemporary economic research and of the actual speed and strength with which this emerging field of economics is developing. ... this book on computational economics offers a remarkable picture of the very recent development of economics as a science as well as an exciting preview of its potential achievements in the near future." --Mathematical Reviews
