Simple computer experiments, expansive scientific questions
In A New Kind of Science, Stephen Wolfram uses illustrated computer experiments as the starting point for a broader argument about how the universe works. The description emphasizes a contrast between the experiments’ simple beginnings and their unexpected results. The book presents those results as grounds for reconsidering familiar ways of explaining natural systems; that larger claim is Wolfram’s argument, not a settled conclusion established by the description.
