Qualitative Complexity [EPUB ebook] 
Ecology, Cognitive Processes and the Re-Emergence of Structures in Post-Humanist Social Theory

Offering a critique of the humanist paradigm in contemporary social theory, Qualitative Complexity is the first comprehensive sociological analysis of complexity theory. Drawing from sources in sociology, philosophy, complexity theory, ”fuzzy logic”, systems theory, cognitive science and evolutionary biology, John Smith and Chris Jenks present a new series of interdisciplinary perspectives on the sociology of complex, self-organizing structures.
