  An ant colony operates without a central control or hierarchy, and no ant directs another. Focusing on the moment-to-moment behavior of ant colonies, this book investigates the role of interaction networks in regulating colony behavior and relations among ant colonies. It shows how ant behavior arises from local interactions of individuals.
