What enables individually simple insects like ants to act with such precision and purpose as a group? How do trillions of neurons produce something as extraordinarily complex as consciousness? In this remarkably clear and companionable book, leading complex systems scientist Melanie Mitchell provides an intimate tour of the sciences of complexity, a broad set of efforts that seek to explain how large-scale complex, organized, and adaptive behavior can emerge from simple interactions among myriad individuals. Based on her work at the Santa Fe Institute and drawing on its interdisciplinary strategies, Mitchell brings clarity to the workings of complexity across a broad range of biological, technological, and social phenomena, seeking out the general principles or laws that apply to all of them. Richly illustrated, Complexity: A Guided Tour-winner of the 2010 Phi Beta Kappa Book Award in Science-offers a wide-ranging overview of the ideas underlying complex systems science, the current research at the forefront of this field, and the prospects for its contribution to solving some of the most important scientific questions of our time.

內容挺廣泛的,介紹瞭復雜性存在的各種領域,生物、計算機、網絡科學等等。有一點不滿意的地方是作者刻意追求科普性,書中很多能夠用簡單公式描述的地方都被描述性語言代替瞭。的確,這樣不會冒著用公式嚇退讀者的危險,但是作者也體會不到數學的簡潔性瞭。
評分Complexity is not well-defined. It's perspectives. It's waiting for someone who can look through these perspectives in a more profound way to integrate them into a new understanding of the world, just like Newton did with calculus.

2019.1.5 由于作者是计算机科学的专业人士,本书偏重于计算机方面的知识,而且相当细节和广泛。对一般读者仅仅需要了解大概即可。 单个体很简单,群体可以很复杂,系统的复杂性可以从众多例子看到,如行军蚁,免疫系统等等。 亚里士多德,伽利略,牛顿的动力学延伸发展出庞加莱...
評分之前被经济学理论骗了几年,然后又被哲学的后现代主义骗了几年,接下来是演化心理学和演化生物学,于是为了谨防自己再次受骗,学习复杂性理论过程中,时刻提醒自己:谨防再次上当。 有些人看了个《三体》就觉得“三体问题”是解决所有问题的钥匙(其实不过是复杂性系统的一支)...
評分不同的学科对于同样的事物往往展现了不同的分析角度和思考深度。比如在经济学教科书中往往会有这样的例子,在一个人口众多的城市中,从来没有一个负责统筹调度食物的中央机构,但是市民的餐饮问题还是自然而然地解决了,经济学把这一现象的原因解释为市场的力量,每一个自利的...
評分虽然副标题写着“读完《复杂》”,但其实这本书中很多和生物、遗传、免疫等我不太感兴趣的内容我都是胡乱看过去的。 复杂性科学很是庞杂,回想刚刚读完的这本书,我觉得作者真得写了很多东西,我都不能用简短且概括的几句话把它转述出来。所以下面很长一部分是和书的内容有关的...
評分原发布于本人[博客](http://wulfric.me/2016/06/complexity-guide/) 刚下过一场小雨,天空正在变晴,空气还是湿漉漉的,落叶上的水珠苍翠欲滴。这是难得的空闲,你点上一支烟,抬起了头。今天的天空有些奇怪,那蓝色似乎与往日不同。失真的色彩让你陷入了沉思,往事如潮水般...
