Descripción del artículo del vendedor

nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - What does the branching of blood vessels in your body have to do with the growth of cities Why does the same equation that describes how a rumour spreads through a crowd also predict the collapse of a rainforest How can a gene regulatory network and the World Wide Web share the same mathematical fingerprint The answer to all three questions is the same: they are all networks. And networks, it turns out, follow universal laws.In The Complexity Horizon, Dr. Oulandé Frimsworth-Baye takes readers on an intellectually thrilling journey through one of the most consequential revolutions in modern science: the discovery that biology, physics, economics, neuroscience, and sociology have all been circling the same hidden truth. Complexity, whether it appears in a cell, a city, a brain, or a financial market, takes recognisable mathematical forms. The disciplines that once seemed to have nothing to say to each other are now speaking the same language.This is not a book about metaphors. It is a book about mathematics. About the power laws that govern everything from earthquake magnitudes to the distribution of wealth. About the small-world networks that put any two people on Earth within six degrees of each other and also determine how fast a pandemic burns through a population. About emergence, the breathtaking phenomenon by which simple local rules generate irreducible global order, and why it means that you cannot understand a brain by staring at a neuron or an economy by watching a single trader.Across twelve carefully constructed chapters, Dr. Frimsworth-Baye moves from the molecular networks inside the cell to the food webs of the Amazon, from the neural oscillations of the resting brain to the superlinear scaling of cities, from the self-organised criticality of sandpiles to the cascading failures that bring down power grids and financial systems. At each stop, the reader encounters a world that is both stranger and more ordered than expected.The Complexity Horizon is written for the intellectually restless reader who has always sensed that the disciplines are more connected than the university catalogues suggest. It does not require a scientific background. It requires only curiosity and the willingness to see familiar things in an unfamiliar way.By the time you finish this book, you will not see a city, a disease outbreak, a murmuration of starlings, or an income distribution the same way again. The shape of everything, it turns out, is a network. And once you know that, the world becomes not more complicated but vastly more comprehensible.A landmark work of popular science that belongs on the same shelf as A Brief History of Time, The Selfish Gene, and Thinking, Fast and Slow.…
