'Fascinating. Lucid. Compelling. It's clearly one of the best books on this growing, vital subject, and the one I would heartily recommend to beginners. With wit, humour, anecdotes, and a lot of style, it captures the excitement and drama that make complexity theory one of the hottest fields around.' Michio Kaky, author of Hyperspace 'Science journalism at its best, succinctly covering an impressively wide range of recent results and carefully tracing back their roots.' Karl Sigmund, Nature

'If evidence were needed that [complexity] really is more than chaos in a teacup, then Peter Coveney and Roger Highfield provide it in abundance. They stake out its claims in a remarkable profusion of areas, covering artificial life, neural networks, robotics, evolutionary game theory, computer genetics and even the chemistry of concrete. This is by far and away the most comprehensive, accurate and lively introduction to the subject, and a fertile source for those who want to dig deeper.' New Statesman
This comprehensive work investigates: the role of computers in the understanding of complexity; spontaneous emergence of order in the universe; how nature can solve problems that traditionally defeat scientists; and the likelihood that intelligence will evolve within computers.
