"Emergence: From Chaos To Order" is a book by John H. Holland that explores the concept of emergence and how it occurs in complex systems. Holland seeks to understand the process by which simple components of a system can interact and produce complex behaviors and structures that cannot be predicted from the individual components alone. He argues that emergence reveals an important characteristic of complex systems: that they are creative, innovative, and adaptive. Holland's book provides a broad overview of emergence, including its philosophical and mathematical aspects, and offers examples of emergent phenomena in areas such as nature, science, and society. Overall, "Emergence: From Chaos To Order" is a thought-provoking read that challenges readers to consider the implications of emergence for our understanding of the world.
