该书是一本von Neumann关于“自复制自动机”的研究论文集，由von Neumann在密西根大学的助手Arthur Burk（大名鼎鼎的John Holland的博士导师）整理编辑。 这本书的意义不仅仅在于它实际上开创了“人工生命”、“细胞自动机”等多门复杂性研究的分支。更重要的是，该书将“自我复制”作为生命的一个本质特征加以数学建模的研究。而这套理论和可计算性理论、歌德尔定理以及热力学深深地联系到了一起。这一点也许对于我们研究复杂系统的人来说仍具有重要的意义。

The phenomenal self, however, is not a thing but an ongoing process; it is the content of a "transparent self-model." In Being No One, Metzinger, a German philosopher, draws strongly on neurosci...(展开全部)

Metafiction begins by surveying the state of contemporary fiction in Britain and America and explores the complex political, social and economic factors which influence critical judgment of fiction. The author shows how, as the novel has been eclipsed by the mass media, novelists have sought to retain and regain a wide readership by drawing on the themes and preoccupations of t...(展开全部)
