Complexity and Emergence
This book includes contributions about mathematics, physics, philosophy of science, economics and finance and resulted from the Summer School “Complexity and Emergence: Ideas, Methods, with a Special Attention to Economics and Finance” held in Lake Como School of Advanced Studies, on 22–27 July 2018. The aim of the book is to provide useful instruments from the theory of complex systems, both on the theoretical level and the methodological ones, profiting from knowledge and insights from leading experts of different communities. It moves from the volume editors' conviction that to achieve progress in understanding socio-economical as well as ecological problems of our complex word such preparation is needed, together with a critical reconsideration of our basic scientific and economical approach. The potential readers are primarily master and doctorate students of mathematics, information sciences, theoretical physics and economics, as well as research workers in those areas, who want to enlarge their spectrum of knowledge towards the area of complexity and emergence. Since ideas and methods of the theory of complex systems also apply to other areas (from engineering and architecture to biology and medicine, e.g.), students and research workers from those areas will also profit from this book.
Regenerative Design
This book aims to provide bases for reasoning on what opportunities the regenerative approaches to urban-architectural design and development can bring to our territories and living systems (environment, society, city and learning). It collects research, experiences and considerations from experts that present innovations from different contexts, especially from the Latin-Mediterranean context. The goal of this book is to provide the reader with case studies, analysis and guidelines, resulting from scientific research from academia and practice. The book collects research focused on topics that are nowadays crucial to understand how to intervene in the complicated contexts of socio-environmental emergencies. These studies are organized into seven sections, discussing from the importance of new narrative facing future environmental challenges, to the appropriate methodologies and approaches for regenerative culture with systemic view. The book closes with outputs, dreams and hopes of regenerative design: challenges and opportunities to rewrite our alliance with the environment and to move forward our relation with the socio-environmental capital.
