A First Look at the Second Metamorphosis of Science

E. Atlee Jackson · 1995

What follows is a preliminary collection of thoughts concerning the fundamental changes that are occurring in the foundations, methods and objectives of science. This organization was begun while I was on sabbatical leave from the University of Illinois, and had very enjoyable and stimulating interactions as a visiting faculty member of the Santa Fe Institute, from January until August, 1992. This organization was continued during 1992-1993, including another visit to the Santa Fe Institute in July-August 1993. Some additional relevant quotations from scientists have be appended during my 1994 visit to SFI.
