Aiming to reenact Creation, at least in part, these experimenters have hoped to understand the links between body and spirit, matter and mind, mechanism and consciousness. Genesis Redux examines moments from this centuries-long experimental tradition: efforts to simulate life in machinery, to synthesize life out of material parts, and to understand living beings by comparison with inanimate mechanisms.Jessica Riskin collects seventeen essays from distinguished scholars i 606 $aArtificial life 615 0$aArtificial life. 676 $a113/.8 686 $aST 300$2rvk 701 $aRiskin$b Jessica$01803887 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910966676203321 996 $aGenesis redux$94351653 997 $aUNINA
