Indicators are more and more applied to describe and analyze complex systems. Typical examples: Innovation potential of nations, child-well being, Environmental health, poverty, chemical pollution, corruption of nations. The task is: How can a system of indicators be defined in order to fulfill the above expectations. One possibility is the application of the mathematical theory of partial order, especially when the indicator system shall be u...

“Multi-indicator Systems and Modelling in Partial Order” contains the newest theoretical concepts as well as new applications, and applications where standard multivariate statistics fail. Some of the presentations have their counterpart in the book, however, there are many contributions, which are completely new in the field of applied partial order.

Partial Order? - Never heard of it!This comment will be heard no more, when the broadness of this mathematical concept has been explained. Many internationally renowned authors assist the reader in understanding what partial order is and where, why and how this concept can be used. Since all the authors have teaching experience, partial order is explained step by step. Mathematical formalism is avoided as far as ever possible. The book begins ...
