COMPLEXITY
THE EMERGING SCIENCE AT THE EDGE OF ORDER AND CHAOS
M. Mitchell Waldrop
Explore the fascinating world of complexity and how seemingly unrelated phenomena are linked through the science of this intricate system. From the sudden disappearance of ancient species to the organization of galaxies, discover how single elements spontaneously come together to form complicated structures. Join the scientific luminaries at The Santa Fe Institute, including Nobel Laureates Murray Gell-Mann and Kenneth Arrow, as they make groundbreaking discoveries that could change the face of science forever. Brimming with insights, this book by M. Mitchell Waldrop takes you on an engaging journey into the scientific revolution of complexity.

This is such a great point. This is the essence of Complexity Theory. With complex systems (multi-variable, nonlinear), you have no idea if the variable you are using for analysis will hold over the long term. Read this book, it changes everything - – источник2019-02-18T15:38:16.000Z
4/These ideas collided with my first exposure to the idea of complex adaptive systems. @MitchWaldrop 's great book, Complexity, documents the early days of @sfiscience and explains many of the big ideas. – источник2021-03-22T14:57:00.000Z
Bill Gurley: "My favorite book of all time is a book called 'Complexity.' It’s an analysis of multi-variable nonlinear systems and how they behave. And that includes things like stock market, weather or pandemics." – источник
