A New Kind of Science

A New Kind of Science is a book by Stephen Wolfram, published by his company Wolfram Research under the imprint Wolfram Media in 2002. It contains an empirical and systematic study of computational systems such as cellular automata. Wolfram calls these systems simple programs and argues that the scientific philosophy and methods appropriate for the study of simple programs are relevant to other fields of science. (Wikipedia).

The New Science of Aging

According to evolutionary biologist Michael Rose, the conventional 20th century science of aging is dead. The way he sees it, we're on the cusp of a new scientific era—similar to when Newtonian physics gave way to Einstein's theory of relativity. He pulls no punches, and predicts an exact
