Review
. . . an integrative book that will become a landmark and a classic as we grope towards a more comprehensive and satisfying theory of evolution. (Stephen Jay Gould )
Stuart Kauffman's book . . . is a global representation of a new field, that will greatly enhance our physical understanding of Nature . . . A superb reading, not limited to physicists and biologists, having most important implications in natural philosophy. (Manfred Eigen )
Here is a big book with a big purpose. . . . The Origins of Order is the first book to be written by any of the complexity theorists themselves, and it presents Kauffman's view of the biological realm. . . . The Origins of Order will be seen as a major work in the progression of biological theory. At the very least, Kauffman has made a persuasive case to have his bold hypothesis heard. (Roger Lewin ) --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
