Probably the most comprehensive book on Stochastic Simulation

There are not many books on innovation and even less on innovation in engineering. This book is probably one of the few addressing the subject and actually providing recipes and solutions. It is about innovation versus incrementalism and about revolution versus evolution. In an evolutive technological framework, classical methodologies remain valid and sufficient. For innovative technologies to blossom, new methodologies are necessary. An innovation is not an idea. It requires invention plus implementation. This book is about implementation.

The methodologies advocated in this book transcend and surpass traditional and antiquated boundaries and schemes of mechanical engineering and CAE. The main vehicle of the concepts set forth herein is Monte Carlo Simulation, a natural platform upon which innovative and unifying paradigms in engineering design and analysis may be built. The fantastic potential of Monte Carlo method emanates from the fact that they actually mimic Nature. Nature "instinctively acts" via Monte Carlo methods which, in today's somehow necessarily complex world, are a monument to simplicity and elegance. An invitation to imagination. This provocative book is meant to engage and enrage the reader. To terrify and enlighten. After all, if you'll always do what you always did, you'll always get what you always got. Changes are chances.
