3.0 out of 5 stars Okay, but..., Sep 12 2004
By M. Caelius - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Artificial Life Lab/Book and Disk (Paperback)
I recently read this book and worked with the programs. Although it's a bit dated, I don't think the core basics have changed much. I like the author's visionary style, and the concept behind the book and accompanying software program; i.e. to give intermediate computer users an intro to artifical life via cellular automata. However, I was confused in the second chapter by some hazy explanations in computation examples, and a few apparent typo's in the Turing machine programming code examples - not too cool. This unnecessary situation caused me to waste time by having to read the chapter twice, and more slowly. Other than that, a stimulating book.
