    Abstract: This book concisely presents a broad range of models and theories on social systems. Because of the huge spectrum of topics involving social systems, various issues related to Mathematics, Statistics, Teaching, Social Science, and Economics are discussed. In an effort to introduce the subject to a wider audience, this volume, part of the series “Studies in Systems, Decision and Control”, equally addresses the needs of mathematicians, statisticians, sociologists and philosophers. The studies examined here are divided into four parts. The first part, “Perusing the Minds Behind Scientific Discoveries”, traces the winding path of Syamal K. Sen and Ravi P. Agarwal’s scholarship throughout history, and most importantly, the thought processes that allowed each of them to master their subject. The second part covers “Theories in Social Systems” and the third discusses “Models in Social Systems”, while the fourth and final part is dedicated to “Mathematical Methods in the Social Sciences”. Given its breadth of coverage, the book will offer inquisitive readers a valuable point of departure for exploring these rich, vast, and ever-expanding fields of knowledge.
    Description / Table of Contents: Perusing the Minds behind Scientific Discoveries -- A general framework for individual and social choices -- Nationality Board Diversity in Organizations: a Brief Review and Future Research Directions -- Mathematical Modeling of Some Physical Phenomena through Dynamical Systems -- Methods for improving the quality of image reconstruction in Computerized Tomography -- Questionnaires, bar and hyperstructures -- Micropolar Thermoelasticity with Voids using Fractional Order Strain -- Difusion in Microstretch Thermoelasticity with Microtemperatures and Microconcentrations -- Axial-symmetric potential flows -- Monte Carlo Method and Generation of Random Numbers by Usage of Numerical Methods.

    Abstract: Science on Safety and Security in Interdisciplinary and Multidisciplinary Discipline -- Concept of Science on Safety and Security -- Theoretical Concepts Related to the Local Public Order Affairs Studies.
    Abstract: This book aims to inform about the current empirical results of the work of experts in the field security and emergency management and risk management in connecting science, theory and practice in various fields related to security management and emergency management. The chapters present research work and case studies from international, state as well as regional levels. The book is divided into five sections, which deal with Safety and Security Science, Security and Emergency managment, Threats and Risks, Cyber Risks and Extraordinary Event, Preparation and Solutions. The book is intended primarily for scientific communities established in security sciences, theorists and experts working in various positions and levels of security organizations, universities with specializations in security studies, but also for the expert public interested in security issues or entities directly responsible for security and emergency management.
