Synopsis
Illustrated, 240 pages. This book explores many aspects of the fascinating new field of complexity theory, taking the approach of explaining concepts through the use of examples and demonstrations rather than mathematics and theory. Complexity theory is thought by many to hold the key to understanding such diverse topics as stock market behavior, human memory, and the origin of life.
