By: Peter Coveney, Roger Highfield"SCIENCE JOURNALISM AT ITS BEST. . . An impeccably researched, amazingly up-to-date, crisply written and well-illustrated survey."
--Nature
At the cutting edge of the sciences, a dynamic new concept is emerging: complexity. In this groundbreaking new book, Peter Coveney and Roger Highfield explore how complexity in mathematics, physics, biology, chemistry, and even the social sciences is transforming not only the way we think about the universe, but also the very assumptions that underlie conventional science.
Complexity is a watchword for a new way of thinking about the behavior of interacting units, whether they are atoms, ants in a colony, or neurons firing in a human brain. The rise of the electronic computer provided both the key and the catalyst to our exploration of complexity.
A new generation of computers that runs on light and exploits the bizarre properties of quantum mechanics promises to deepen our understanding still further. The advances we have already witnessed are spectacular. The authors take us inside laboratories where scientists are evolving the genetic molecules that enabled life to emerge on earth and generating universes teeming with virtual creatures in cyber-space. We witness the utterly realistic behavior of a school of virtual fish--computer-generated replicas that have been trained to swim gracefully, hunt for food, and scatter at the approach of a leopard shark.
Compelling in its clarity, far-reaching in its implications, vibrant with the excitement of new discovery, Frontiers of Complexity is an arresting account of how far science has come in the past fifty years and an essential guide to the rapidly approaching future.
"[A] MARVELOUS AND COMPREHENSIVE WORK . . . Virtually any scientist or interested lay reader will find this book engrossing, edifying and inspiring."

Great Fit and Price While Updating My Wardrobe
Color: Shortbread, Size: Large
As I’ve been getting fitter, my old clothes started looking too baggy, so I needed something that fit better without breaking the bank. This COOFANDY chambray shirt turned out to be exactly what I was looking for—lightweight, wrinkle-resistant, and stylish enough for casual or dressy wear. The fabric feels soft and breathable, and it pairs easily with jeans or slacks. Since I’m still losing weight, I didn’t want to overspend on clothes I may size out of soon, and these hit the sweet spot for both quality and affordability.

The shirts run true to size and are very well made.
Color: Wine Red-polka Dots, Size: 3X-Large
I want the company COOFANDY and the customers who are considering buying these men's wrinkle free men's shirts for casual business wear, to know that the shirts are beautiful. The material is perfect, and they are made exceptionally well! One of the two shirts that I bought for my husband looks great on him. I had to buy one in a size 2x and one in a size 3x due to the reviews on Amazon's website, where so many of the reviewers stated that the size that they bought ran too small, while other reviewers said the shirt runs too large. My husband tried on the 2x, and it fit him perfectly, which was great because he always wears a 2x. The reason that I am returning them both is that these shirts are tuck-in shirts, and my husband only wears shirts that do not have to be tucked in, such as straight-bottom shirts. I showed him the picture of the shirt in the ad to prove that the models wore them out, not tucked in, but he said the style is wrong for wearing this shirt on the outside, and that he would not be able to wear it. I am so sorry, but I had to return them as he would not ever wear them. But I wanted you, COOFANDY, and your customers to know that the shirts are well worth the money and are just beautiful!
