Abstract
Since the first reflections of Schrödinger about life [8.14] there has been a considerable amount of literature on self-organizing systems, and more especially on the various relationships between information, on the one hand, and such topics as order, disorder, complexity, and organization on the other. Loosely speaking, these books and articles can be divided into two kinds: those which are qualitative and philosophical, and those which deal with systems science and physics.
There is nothing more practical than a good theory.
Ludwig Boltzman
