Book Description

Publication Date: 3 Mar 1997 | ISBN-10: 0262621126 | ISBN-13: 978-0262621120 | Edition: New edition
Artificial life, a field that seeks to increase the role of synthesis in the study of biological phenomena, has great potential, both for unlocking the secrets of life and for raising a host of disturbing issues -- scientific and technical as well as philosophical and ethical. This book brings together a series of overview articles that appeared in the first three issues of the groundbreaking journal Artificial Life, along with a new introduction by Christopher Langton, Editor-in-Chief of Artificial Life, founder of the discipline, and Director of the Artificial Life Program at the Santa Fe Institute.

1.0 out of 5 stars An eclectic gathering of papers on dynamic systems 25 Mar 1998
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
Langton pulls together a number of interesting papers from the Los Alamos a-life conference, bound with the perspective only he can provide. Great for the technically-minded curious but most promising as storehouse of ideas for experimentors in dynamic adaptive systems.

1.0 out of 5 stars Reprint for money 8 Nov 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Why not just go to the library and pick up volume 1 of the Artificial Life journal. That's all this is. Did someone really have the gall to sell us a journal twice? Yes, Virginia, I guess they did.
