Description

Before creating Mathematica, Stephen Wolfram was well known in the scientific community for his groundbreaking work in the study of complexity and cellular automata. His work in the early 1980s has been the basis for thousands of papers in the scientific literature as well as for several popular books. This book is a collection of his original papers on cellular automata and complexity, many of which have never been published before.
