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.

评分作为一个研究复杂系统行为的人,我读此书时格外认真。自从在北京三联书店时光咖啡馆邂逅这本书,屈指算来,大概断断续续读了有一个月。 当我们说我们研究系统,通常并不是指非常简单的系统。因为那样的系统很容易理解,很容易模拟。因此本书书名很恰当--复杂。复杂系统普遍有...
评分因为学长推荐看的这本书,一开始看目录看到基因、遗传、混沌等词语的时候以为是本很“复杂” 的理论书籍。然而,当真正翻开书的时候,才发现这是一本纪实性科普——对复杂性科学的科普。书中涉及了计算机、数学、物理学、生物学等多个领域的内容,念书的时候学到的概念公式,在...

终于(再次)在最需要干正事儿的时候看完了一本“闲书”,越往后看的越不仔细,第三章定义信息的部分非常震撼, 还有第十二章讲蚂蚁怎样通过费洛蒙沟通真是解决了大学这么多年的一大困惑。感觉cellular automaton还是自己写一个程序跑一下会看的比较直观,因为没有理解这类游戏规则里interaction的同时性与否对于outcome会不会有影响。
评分类比章节我很喜欢,可能是写程序的人对这种题材比较敏感,其他章节都是科普故事居多,故事如此归置在一起,用来作为科普入门书倒是不错,可以一读。

评分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
评分1.Halting problem与哥德尔不完备定理的证明在概念上是相通甚至等价的。2.自然中的计算是复杂系统为适应性而对信息的处理。3.Cellular automata的碰撞线本身是信息的传递和处理。4.复杂系统最终能形成科学的真正挑战是是否能有可解释自组织、涌现等现象的概念体系和数学工具(相当于微积分对牛顿力学意义上的)。
