Description

#ComplexityExplained is the result of a worldwide collaborative effort from leading experts, practitioners and students in the field of the Complex Systems community. The goal is to identify and explain the most relevant features of complex systems through an accessible lens.

This resource is free. You can visit the official website where you can also find special interactive "explorables" to play with, to better understand concepts like adaptation, emergence and self-organization.

A booklet in PDF format is also available for free download and redistribution under CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 license (see below).
