About the Santa Fe Institute
The Santa Fe Institute (SFI) is a multidisciplinary graduate research and teaching
institution formed to nuture research on complex systems and their simpler elements. A
private, independent institution, SFI was founded in 1984. Its primary concern is to
focus the tools of traditional scientific disciplines and emerging new computer resources
on the problems and opportunities that are involved in the multidisciplinary study of
complex systems -- those fundamental processes that shape almost every aspect of human
life. Understanding complex systems is critical to realizing the full potential of science,
and may be expected to yield enormous intellectual and practical benefits.
All titles from the Santa Fe Institute Studies
in the Sciences of Complexity series will carry
this imprint which is based on a Mimbres
pottery design (circa A.D. 950-1150), drawn
by Betsy Jones.
