More about the book
Focusing on the evolution of complexity in the natural world, this collection of the author's work delves into fitness landscapes to explain significant increases in complexity. It introduces fundamental concepts, utilizing variations of the NK model and the Baldwin effect to create new abstract models. These frameworks elucidate the evolutionary innovations such as genomes, symbiosis, sex, chromosomes, and multicellularity, shedding light on how and why complexity has evolved in certain lineages over time.
