An overarching framework for comparing and steering complex adaptive systems is developed through understanding the mechanisms that generate their intricate sig

Genetic algorithms are playing an increasingly important role in studies of complex adaptive systems, ranging from adaptive agents in economic theory to the use

In this very short introduction, John Holland presents an introduction to the science of complexity. Using examples from biology and economics, he shows how com
