    I found a copy of this book at a Goodwill bookstore in Scottsdale, AZ. I was entranced by its title, but at the time I knew nothing about complexity theory or the Santa Fe institute for that matter.

    This book is probably the easiest to understand primer about the field of complexity theory available on the market today. The deep insights this book provided helped me to see an interconnectedness among all living things. Although it is a science book, it helped refine my beliefs about the divine in ways I never would have envisioned them without having first read about complexity theory. Good stuff!
