Complex adaptive systems (cas), including ecosystems, governments, biological cells, and markets, are characterized by intricate hierarchical arrangements of boundaries and signals. In ecosystems, for example, niches act as semi-permeable boundaries, and smells and visual patterns serve as signals; governments have departmental hierarchies with memoranda acting as signals; and so it is with other cas. Despite a wealth of data and descriptions concerning different cas, there remain many unanswered questions about “steering” these systems. In Signals and Boundaries, John Holland argues that understanding the origin of the intricate signal/border hierarchies of these systems is the key to answering such questions. He develops an overarching framework for comparing and steering cas through the mechanisms that generate their signal/boundary hierarchies.
Holland lays out a path for developing the framework that emphasizes agents, niches, theory, and mathematical models. He discusses, among other topics, theory construction; signal-processing agents; networks as representations of signal/boundary interaction; adaptation; recombination and reproduction; the use of tagged urn models (adapted from elementary probability theory) to represent boundary hierarchies; finitely generated systems as a way to tie the models examined into a single framework; the framework itself, illustrated by a simple finitely generated version of the development of a multi-celled organism; and Markov processes.

Highly likely, in this book J. H. Holland tries to summarize his last thoughts on complex adaptive system in his old age. Could serve as a book for inspriations for anyone who are working in a field of CAS that is discussed in the book. The theorization looks too general to be immediately useful.
评分將語言比作CAS是一個很好的想法，但不能操作，就隻能是想法。好在我們還有QL。 //一直沒有買，前幾日WSY先生在郵件中提到此書，於是就在卓越買瞭，比美國amazon貴一些，但快啊。這本書中有關於語言的章節哦。
