From the reviews: "This volume is an excellent summary of the state of research to date; a concise guide for new adopters of field-based coordination; and a stimulating survey of potential research areas. It will be valuable both as a textbook for advanced undergraduate courses in multiagent systems and as a reference for active researchers in the field." (H. Van Dyke Parunak, ACM Computing Reviews, November, 2011)

More and more, software systems involve autonomous and distributed software components that have to execute and interact in open and dynamic environments, such as in pervasive, autonomous, and mobile applications.
