This wide-ranging book provides a broad and unique canvas on complexity and complexity science at an advanced but non-technical level. The book skillfully combines elements from the history and philosophy of sciences with modern problem solving approaches to the ever growing list of systems in the widest sense. Emphasis is given to the evolution of new structures in natural and cultural systems and we are led to clearly see how the new integrative approach can give insights not available from traditional reductionistic methods. The fifth edition enlarges and revises almost all sections and supplements an entirely new chapter on the complexity of economic systems.

Owner's bookplate on inside front cover. Book is in excellent condition. Binding tight. Pages clean and unmarked. The theory of nonlinear, complex systems has become by now a proven problem-solving approach in the natural sciences. It is also recognized that many, if not most, of our social, ecological, economical and political problems are essentially of a global, complex and nonlinear nature. And it is now further accepted than any holistic perspective of the human mind and brain can hardly be achieved by any other approach. In this wide-ranging, scholarly but very concise treatment, Klaus Mainzer (physicist, computer scientist and philosopher) discusses, in essentially nontechnical language, the common framework behind these ideas and challenges. Emphasis is given to the evolution of new structures in natural and cultural systems, and we are lead to see clearly how the new integrative approach can give insights not available from traditional reductionistic methods. The fifth edition enlarges and revises almost all sections and include an entirely new chapter on the complexity of economic systems. N° de réf. du vendeur ABE-1758122197708
