我猜你读过 GEB。那本书东拉西扯，正因如此才引人入胜。Roger Lewin 的《Complexity》算是对略显模糊的复杂性科学早期历史的一种新闻式写法。但还挺有意思的。微软研究院的……写的《The Computational Beauty of Nature》……
I assume you've read GEB. That wanders all over the map, and is fascinating for it. "Complexity" by Roger Lewin is a sort of journalistic take on the early history of the slightly vague field of complexity science. But its fairly interesting. "The Computational Beauty of Nature" by Microsoft R&D…
This has been a topic of interest for me for almost a decade so far. See also: non-linear dynamics, dynamical systems The study of Complexity in the US Sciences is fairly recent, with the notable kickoff of the Santa Fe Institute [1]. They have all the resources there, from classes to scientific conferences. A few book recommendations I've…
喜欢这个的人应该看看 Roger Lewin 的《Complexity: Life at the Edge of Chaos》。现在有点过时了，但它讲了圣塔菲研究所的创立，该所或多或少是为了回答一个更根本的问题而成立的：有哪些种类……
Those who enjoyed this should check out Roger Lewin's "Complexity: Life at the Edge of Chaos". It's a bit dated now but covers the founding of the Santa Fe Institute, which was more or less founded to answer an even more fundamental question: what are the varieties…
……软件玩具生态系统，最终演化出病毒、寄生虫和捕食者–猎物循环之类的东西。顺便说一句，最早那个是用 Lisp 实现的（在 Roger Lewin 的《Complexity》一书中有引用和评论）。现在用 Windows 机器来做这件事，给整件事添了一种讽刺/施虐的调调。
…software toy ecosystems which eventually developed viruses and parasites and prey-predator cycles and what not. The very first one, by the way, was implemented in Lisp (cited and commented upon in the book "Complexity" by Roger Lewin.) Now doing it with Windows machines adds a sarcastic/sadistic tone to the whole thing.

到目前为止，这已经是我关注了快十年的主题。另见：非线性动力学、动力系统。复杂性研究在美国科学界相当晚近，标志性的起点是圣塔菲研究所 [1]。那里资源齐全，从课程到科学会议都有。我推荐的几本书……
