Reviews

In the welter of today's information tsunami, it is statistically likely that this gem of a contribution will go unnoticed. Any such oversight would be a sad mistake. [...] It should be compulsory reading for all time-smiths but would not be out of place in an essential reading list for all those entering any form of advanced education, most especially those trying to understand the behavior of living systems in all their manifold complexities. Laudatory encomia for texts are all very well but let me simply say this--I am very glad that I read it, and I wish I had written it. - Peter A. Hancock in KronoScope 14 (2014) pp. 109-112.
