Description

This Brief is an essay at the interface of philosophy and complexity research, trying to inspire the reader with new ideas and new conceptual developments of cellular automata. Going beyond the numerical experiments of Steven Wolfram, it is argued that cellular automata must be considered complex dynamical systems in their own right, requiring appropriate analytical models in order to find precise answers and predictions in the universe of cellular automata.Indeed, eventually we have to ask whether cellular automata can be considered models of the real world and, conversely, whether there are limits to our modern approach of attributing the world, and the universe for that matter, essentially a digital reality.

User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐The book itself is overall good and has interesting summaries of aspects of automata. Unfortunately, it has been poorly edited for use on a Kindle device: the equations are often barely readable, the images seeming to become regularly corrupted, and worse a number of important figures make use of colours with red and blue for automata states instead of black and white. Needless to say, that renders them completely useless on a black and white screen. I had to switch to my phone in order to read some chapters.
