Principles of Organization in Organisms

By Arthur B. Baskin and Jay E. Mittenthal

Based on a workshop held at the Santa Fe Institute in June, 1990, this book explores structure in organisms--both physical and dynamical--and presents the current status of the search for natural pathways, principles of organization, and the theory of design for organisms. Topics discussed include dynamical systems analysis; the pathways of evolution; development, physiology, and functional morphology; and the principles of dynamical change in connectivity within the networks of processes.
