Starting from a collection of simple computer experiments---illustrated in the book by striking computer graphics---Wolfram shows how their unexpected results force a whole new way of looking at the operation of our universe. Wolfram uses his approach to tackle a remarkable array of fundamental problems in science: from the origin of the Second Law of thermodynamics, to the development of complexity in biology, the computational limitations of mathematics, the possibility of a truly fundamental theory of physics, and the interplay between free will and determinism Includes bibliographical references (p. 849-1197) and index Access-restricted-item true Addeddate 2010-11-22 21:17:10 Bookplateleaf 0010 Boxid IA132707 Boxid_2 CH112401 Camera Canon EOS 5D Mark II City Champaign, IL Curatenote shipped Donor belvederetiburonlibrary Edition 1. ed., 3. print.
