What enables individually simple insects like ants to act with such precision & purpose as a group? How do trillions of neurons produce something as extraordinarily complex as consciousness

In this remarkably clear & companionable book, leading complex systems scientist Melanie Mitchell provides an intimate tour of the sciences of complexity, a broad set of efforts that seek to explain how large-scale complex, organized, & adaptive behavior can emerge from simple interactions among myriad individuals.

Based on her work at the Santa Fe Institute & drawing on its interdisciplinary strategies, Mitchell brings clarity to the workings of complexity across a broad range of biological, technological, & social phenomena, seeking out the general principles or laws that apply to all of them. 

Richly illustrated, Complexity: A Guided Tour--winner of the 2010 Phi Beta Kappa Book Award in Science--offers a wide-ranging overview of the ideas underlying complex systems science, the current research at the forefront of this field, & the prospects for its contribution to solving some of the most important scientific questions of our time.

Melanie Mitchell is Professor of Computer Science at Portland State University & External Professor at the Santa Fe Institute.
