源自这门探究简单与复杂的新科学的奠基人之一，本书呈现了对自然界高度个人化且融会贯通的远见。作为一名理论物理学家，Murray Gell-Mann 曾在最根本的层面探索自然。他的成就包括因在发现夸克（贯穿宇宙的所有原子核的基本构件）方面的开创性工作而获得 1969 年诺贝尔奖。然而，Gell-Mann 拥有广泛的求知热情，终生致力于探索那些旨在理解生命最复杂层面的领域：自然史、生物演化、历史以及

Murray Gell-Mann 的《夸克与美洲豹》（The Quark and the Jaguar）是一本风格非常独特的书，不过中间关于量子力学的部分很有意思。
The Quark and the Jaguar by Murray Gell-Mann is a very idiosyncratic book, but with an interesting middle section on quantum mechanics.
Nassim Nicholas Taleb 的《反脆弱》（Antifragile）所带来的启发，触及了我发现彼此大相径庭的许多领域。不过有些地方读起来挺费劲的。Murray Gell-Mann 的《夸克与美洲豹》（The Quark and the Jaguar）是一本读起来非常顺畅且通俗易懂的复杂性科学入门书，而复杂性同样是一个随处可见的话题。Cordelia Fine 的《性别的谎言》（Delusions of Gender）引用了一大堆……
Antifragile by Nassim Nicholas Taleb has implications that I find impact very disparate areas. It's hard work in places though. The Quark and the Jaguar by Murray Gell-Mann is a wonderfully readable and accessible intro to complexity, which again is a topic that seems to crop up all over the place. Delusions of Gender by Cordelia Fine cites a shedload…
Gell-Mann 的《夸克与美洲豹》：涌现与复杂性。Hofstadter 的《哥德尔、艾舍尔、巴赫》：递归。在虚构类作品中，Gene Wolfe（塞佩里安）和 Doris Lessing（《什卡斯塔》）重塑了我相当多的脑神经突触。……
Quark and the Jaguar by Gell-Mann; emergence and complexity. Gödel, Escher, Bach by Hofstadter; recursion. In fiction, Gene Wolfe (Severian) and Doris Lessing (Shikasta) have rewired a considerable number of my synapses.…
我个人的最爱：-《Thirty Years that Shook Physics: The Story of Quantum Theory》 其他好书：-《万物理论》（The Theory Of Everything） -《夸克与美洲豹》（The Quark and the Jaguar） -《费曼物理学讲义精选》（Six Easy Pieces）
My personal favorite: - Thirty Years that Shook Physics: The Story of Quantum Theory Other great books: - The Theory Of Everything - The Quark and the Jaguar - Six Easy Pieces
15% 这个比例在最优化场景中似乎出现得有点诡异……Gell-Mann 在《夸克与美洲豹》中就提到了这一点。某些热带鸟类为了独占食物而发出假警报的比例大致也是这么多。Gell-Mann 推测这个数值接近 1/(2pi)……
The portion 15% seems to crop up suspiciously in optimization contexts... this was noted by Gell-Mann in The Quark and the Jaguar. It's roughly the portion of false warnings sounded by certain tropical birds to gain uncontested access to food. Gell-Mann speculates that it is close to 1/(2pi)...
他的书《夸克与美洲豹》里有一部分讲到了奥维尔棋（Oware），非常推荐。
his book "The Quark and the Jaguar" included a bit about the game Oware which is highly recommended
