5.0 out of 5 stars I recommend it with no hesitation.
It's the book to have if you want to learn computer simulation. It covers both Monte Carlo and Molecular Dynamics, from the start for the beginner. It also includes more advanced topics, but is definitely focused on studying fluids and not solids. The code is written in Fortran. If you program in C I suggest Rapaport's book, but this one is a definite must read.

3.0 out of 5 stars Could be better...
It is a good book in general, but i feel it assumes an intermediate to advanced level of knowledge of the subject.

Quite often the explanations are not elaborate enough to understand the method discussed. A slightly more elaborate treatment would make this a first rate book.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good book, needs an update, August 5, 2000
This review is from: Computer Simulation of Liquids (Paperback)
One of the most influential books on MD and MC, a little outdated by the year, a second edition would be welcome.

This review is from: Computer Simulation of Liquids (Paperback)
This book is a clearly written textbook on a complex subject, but I do wish a new version if possible.
