• 乔治·斯宾塞-布朗的《形式的法则》（Laws of Form），一本描述如何从无到有 bootstrap 出整个宇宙的小册子。路易斯·考夫曼（Louis Kauffman）[1] 就此写过很多论文/文章，从纽结理论一直涵盖到量子物理。如果你曾经……
• "Laws of Form" by George Spencer-Brown, a little book that describes how to bootstrap the Universe from nothing. Louis Kauffman [1] has a lot of papers/writeups on it, from knot theory to quantum physics. If you ever…
那你要不要也考虑一下：乔治·斯宾塞·布朗的《形式的法则》（The Laws of Form），哥特哈德·京特（Gotthard Günther）关于逻辑的任何著作 :)（他可是个难得一见的奇才），马图拉纳和瓦雷拉合著的《自生系统与认知：生命的实现》（Autopoiesis and Cognition: the Realization of the Living），还有尼克拉斯·卢曼的任何作品……
Would you also consider then: _The Laws of Form_ by George Spencer Brown, Anything about logic by Gotthard Günther :) (He's a rare bird.) _Autopoiesis and Cognition: the Realization of the Living_ by Maturana and Varela Anything by Niklass Luhmann…
If you liked that you'll like this: http://www.markability.net/ It's a walk-through of George Spencer-Brown's Laws of Form. It turns out all logic can be modeled by simple containment, and there's a complete basis (discovered by Bricken): A() = () ((A))B = AB A(AB) = A(B) One interesting thing about LoF notation…
…shortsighted and works against intrinsic motivations to learn. That being said I learned about cybernetics in a sociology class. Getting to know Shannon, Wiener, Von Foerster, George Spencer Brown ("Laws of Form" highly recommended reading) and Luhmann was the most interesting stuff I ever got to learn.
…Statistical madlibs for text generation, but useful for understanding people. There is a deeper and simpler logic of nonphysical consciousness that is perhaps best outlined in George Spencer Brown’s Laws of Form. LoF can do boolean logic but goes beyond it as well, towards the resolution of paradox with the logic of distinction. It is also an interesting philosophy when it comes to Systems Theory of Luhmann.…
Another fascinating and strange book on logic — The Laws of Form — is worth tracking down. Even more strange, the only other book published by the author, under a pseudonym.

如果你喜欢那个，你肯定也会喜欢这个：http://www.markability.net/ 它是对乔治·斯宾塞-布朗《形式的法则》的通俗导读。事实证明，所有逻辑都可以通过简单的包容关系建模，而且存在一个完备基（由布里肯发现）：A() = ()，((A))B = AB，A(AB) = A(B)。关于 LoF 记号法，一件有趣的事是……

……目光短浅，而且会挫伤内在的学习动力。话虽如此，我是在一门社会学课上接触到控制论的。认识香农、维纳、冯·福斯特、乔治·斯宾塞·布朗（强烈推荐阅读《形式的法则》）以及卢曼，是我学过的最有意思的东西。

……用于文本生成的统计版“填字接龙”，但对于理解人类很有用。存在一种更深层、更简单的非物质意识逻辑，乔治·斯宾塞·布朗的《形式的法则》或许是对其最好的概述。LoF 既能做布尔逻辑，又超越了它，走向用区分逻辑来化解悖论。在涉及卢曼的系统论时，它也是一种非常有趣的哲学。……

另一本引人入胜且奇特的逻辑学著作——《形式的法则》——非常值得找来一读。更奇葩的是，该作者出版过的唯一另一本书，还是用笔名发表的。
