Melanie Mitchell is a professor of computer science at Portland State University. She has worked at the Santa Fe Institute and Los Alamos National Laboratory. Her major work has been in the areas of analogical reasoning, complex systems, genetic algorithms and cellular automata, and her publications in those fields are frequently cited
As science probes the nature of life, society, and technology ever more closely, what it finds there is complexity. The sophisticated group behavior of social insects, the unexpected intricacies of the genome, the dynamics of population growth, and the self-organized structure of the World Wide Web - these are just a few examples of complex systems that still elude scientific understanding. Comprehending such systems seems to require a wholly new approach, one that goes beyond traditional scientific reductionism and that re-maps long-standing disciplinary boundaries. This remarkably accessible and companionable book, written by a leading complex systems scientist, provides an intimate, detailed 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. In this richly illustrated work, Melanie Mitchell describes in equal parts the history of ideas underlying complex systems science, the current research at the forefront of this field, and the prospects for the field's contribution to solving some of the most important scientific questions of our current century.

希爾伯特問題:前兩條其實就是剋裏特人都是說謊者悖論,由哥德爾解決。第三條由圖靈解決,我看不懂。 1、數學是不是完備的。是不是所有數學命題都可以用一組有限的公理證明或證否。 2、數學是不是一緻的?是不是可以證明的都是真命題? 3、是不是所有命題都是數學可判定的? 第...

評分啃瞭幾個星期,終於陸陸續續看完瞭。燒腦程度算是中等,雖然有的地方懵懵懂懂,不得要點,但也算是能基本理解。對於復雜性科學有瞭大緻的印象,我感覺復雜性科學是一種科學與哲學的混閤體。 與一般意義上的科學相比,它尚未發展到精確的地步,其中的很多概念,如復雜性,湧現,...

complex system: a system in which large networks of components with no central control and simple rules of operation give rise to complex collective behavior, sophisticated information processing, and adaptation via learning or evolution. https://sivers.org/book/Complexity
評分解答瞭我對於復雜係統的很多疑問 在這個領域應該算很好的入門教材瞭吧?
評分類比章節我很喜歡,可能是寫程序的人對這種題材比較敏感,其他章節都是科普故事居多,故事如此歸置在一起,用來作為科普入門書倒是不錯,可以一讀。
評分network隻是complexity的一部分呀
評分雖然不算a novel scientific worldview,全麵細緻的內容讓人view things from a higher level.
