摘要
This note discusses the development of applications of statistical physics to economics since the beginning of the 'econophysics' movement about twenty years ago. I attempt to assess which of these applications appear particularly valuable and successful, and where important overlaps exist between research conducted by economist and 'econophysicists'.
