Produktbeschreibung

This is a classic work, now in a new edition for a new audience. In a wide-ranging and scholarly but very concise treatment, Klaus Mainzer (physicist, computer scientist and philosopher) discusses, in non-technical language, the common framework behind the ideas and challenges of complexity theory. The theory of nonlinear, complex systems is now a proven problem-solving approach in the natural sciences. It is also recognized that many, if not most, of our social, ecological, economical and political problems are essentially of a global, complex and nonlinear nature. It is now further accepted than any holistic perspective of the human mind and brain can hardly be achieved by any other approach. Mainzer gives emphasis to the evolution of new structures in natural and cultural systems, and we are lead to see clearly how the new integrative approach can give insights not available from traditional reductionistic methods. The fifth edition enlarges and revises almost all sections and includes an entirely new chapter on the complexity of economic systems.
