Cilliers offers us a unique approach to understanding complexity and computational theory by integrating postmodern theory (like that of Derrida and Lyotard) into his discussion. Complexity and Postmodernism is an exciting and an original book that should be read by anyone interested in gaining a fresh understanding of complexity, postmodernism and connectionism. 606 $aComplexity (Philosophy) 606 $aComputational complexity 606 $aPostmodernism 615 0$aComplexity (Philosophy) 615 0$aComputational complexity. 615 0$aPostmodernism. 676 $a117 700 $aCilliers$b Paul$f1956-2011.$01663950 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910973522703321 996 $aComplexity and postmodernism$94498867 997 $aUNINA
