Abstract
It is usually assumed that Ising-models of physics represent some of the simplest examples of cooperative phenomena. The interesting properties of cooperative phenomena, such as orderdisorder transitions, multiple states, hysteresis, etc., can be deduced from Ising models, but only through complex computations. The mathematical solution of the simplest Ising-models required the concentrated efforts of some of the best physicists for decades, and it seems that this complexity prevents an intuitive grasp of these phenomena.
