A New Kind of Science

A Project to Find the Fundamental Theory of Physics

Twenty Years of A New Kind of Science


Description

Celebrate the twentieth anniversary of Stephen Wolfram's groundbreaking A New Kind of Science with the signed and numbered limited edition boxed set containing hardcover copies of A New Kind of Science (2002), A Project to Find the Fundamental Theory of Physics (2020) and the commemorative Twenty Years of A New Kind of Science (2022).

In A New Kind of Science, Wolfram starts from a collection of simple computer experiments—illustrated in the book by striking computer graphics—and shows their unexpected results force a whole new way of looking at the operation of our universe.

A Project to Find the Fundamental Theory of Physics launches the Wolfram Physics Project, a bold effort to find the fundamental theory of physics. It combines new ideas with the latest research in physics, mathematics and computation in the push to achieve this ultimate goal of science.

In Twenty Years of A New Kind of Science, Wolfram reflects on the first two decades of A New Kind of Science, discussing some of the major implications that have emerged so far as well as his far-reaching new thinking building on the conceptual framework developed in the original 2002 book. The book also includes a gallery of pieces created over the past 20 years by artists inspired by A New Kind of Science.
