I find myself agreeing with the reviewer who said that this book was an unedited manuscript that somehow got published. But that doesn't quite capture my reaction nor my slight agreement with the first two positive reviews.

What constitutes an acceptable and useful explanation/description of 'complexity'? This question is more important than any particular attempt to explain complexity, yet is not addressed in this book.

First, let me say I only write reviews for what I believe are extraordinary works. Anyone bold enough to take on the task of giving insight into the patterns and features of complexity, then accomplishes what he set out to do, has done something extraordinary.
