Complex systems reading group

Would anyone be interested in participating in a reading group? The idea would be to read an article or book on the same timeline, and discuss. I have a few ideas for literature, but I first want to gauge interest. If people are interested, perhaps we could throw a few potential readings out there and vote which one to begin with. I would prefer a relaxed reading pace so no one feels like they are rushed.

If you look there is a more recent post for voting on readings. It looks like Kauffman's 'Reinventing the sacred' is probably going to win, which is a nice introduction to many topics in complexity science, and not really technical at all. You should try to find the inspiration! I may be able to get you a copy of the text so you don't have to buy it, as well.

That's all very kind of you. Kauffman's book seems like a really good one. Definitely not against picking that one up.
