Description: The concept of self-organization is at the heart of the theory of complex systems. It describes how order can emerge from disorder in otherwise chaotic nonlinear dynamical systems. This book investigates and surveys the role of self-organization in a wide variety of disciplines. The contributions are written by world-renowned scientists and philosophers at a level that is accessible to nonspecialists.
