5: Statistical mechanics: Introduces statistical methods that underpin emergent behavior in large systems and robotics.

6: Complex system: A deep dive into complex systems, where many components interact to create unpredictable outcomes.

7: Reductionism: Analyzes how reducing complex systems to their basic components often misses emergent properties.

8: Holism: Explores the holistic view, which suggests that systems must be understood as a whole to fully grasp emergent phenomena.

9: Selforganization: Investigates how systems can organize themselves without external control, critical to robotic autonomy.

10: Social simulation: Discusses how emergent behaviors can be modeled in social systems, relevant for multirobot cooperation.

11: Selforganized criticality: Delivers insights into systems that naturally evolve to critical states, impacting robotics in unpredictable ways.

12: Emergentism: Provides a comprehensive view of emergentism, stressing its importance in understanding natural and artificial systems.

13: Social complexity: Explores the social systems' complexity and its parallels to robotic systems and collective intelligence.

14: Computational sociology: Introduces computational methods for studying social dynamics and their applicability in robotics.

15: Dynamical systems theory: Focuses on the role of dynamical systems theory in modeling robotic systems' behavior.

16: Generative science: Investigates how generative science principles apply to the creation of autonomous robotic systems.

17: Complex adaptive system: Examines how adaptive systems in both nature and robotics respond to environmental changes.

18: Computer simulation and organizational studies: Discusses using computer simulations to study organizational behavior, relevant to robotic teams.

19: Universal Darwinism: Explores the theory of universal Darwinism and how it can inform evolutionary robotics and AI development.

20: Particle: Investigates particlebased approaches to modeling robotic behavior, with a focus on swarm intelligence.

21: Artificial life: Concludes with an exploration of artificial life and its growing significance in the development of autonomous robotic systems.

"Emergence" provides the essential framework for understanding the complex and interconnected world of robotics and beyond. Its comprehensive approach to emergent phenomena is indispensable for anyone striving to advance in the fields of robotics, complexity science, and artificial intelligence.

Eat Your Rice Cakes -...

RD Margaret Weiss

Have you been confronted with a medical diagnosis that has altered your otherwise comfortable and peaceful life?
Twenty-five years ago, Margaret Weiss, RD , CDCES was happily raising her family in central New Jersey when she was diagnosed with celiac disease. With little support for what was then a relatively unknown condition, she was forced to face her reactions and behaviors as she navigated many, often unpleasant, life changes to accommodate this disease.
· Are you experiencing a range of emotions and behaviors related to your own condition that you’d like to understand better?
· Are you interested in behavioral theories that might help explain and guide your actions as you navigate significant change?
· Are you looking for a way to transform your mindset about your diagnosis with constructive and reliable best practices that are forward-looking and healing?
Drawing on her experience as both a person with celiac disease and as a practicing dietitian, Margaret wrote Eat Your Rice Cakes to explore this journey of change. With humor and pragmatism, she speaks to both patients and providers of healthcare with a combination of personal and professional experiences that illustrate our responses to significant upheaval. Told with humor and insight through her eyes, the book offers an inspirational way for all readers to process life-altering change across a wide range of medical disorders with an ultimate vision of empowerment and compassion.

I Flew Into The Cuckoo's Nest -...

Christopher Ford

A hilarious personal account from within the walls of the asylum.  
Unbelievably true stories that will make you laugh out loud while wincing at the shocking detail. This book will leave you wondering how society can be so seriously messed up, and how collective minds have malfunctioned. Not just for those with mental disorders, but those supposedly treating the afflicted. 
This is definitely not a recruitment advert for mental health nursing. 
This is a hard-hitting reality show. As the author says, “It’s a warts and all” account — meaning not just the warts but also the halitosis, the skid marks, and more. A pig wearing lipstick is still a pig; you cannot sugarcoat reality. 
Your jaw will drop often, but it will be exercised with laughter throughout.

Eating Chilli Crab in the...

Matthew Schneider-Mayerson

In this era of climate crisis, in which our very futures are at stake, sustainability is a global imperative. Yet we tend to associate sustainability, nature, and the environment with distant places, science, and policy. The truth is that everything is environmental, from transportation to taxes, work to love, cities to cuisine. 
 
 
This book is the first to examine contemporary Singapore from an ecocultural lens, looking at the ways that Singaporean life and culture is deeply entangled with the nonhuman lives that flourish all around us. The authors represent a new generation of cultural critics and environmental thinkers, who will inherit the future we are creating today. From chilli crab to Tiger Beer, Changi Airport to Pulau Semakau, O-levels to orang minyak films, these essays offer fresh perspectives on familiar subjects, prompting us to recognise the incredible urgency of climate change and the need to transform our ways of thinking, acting, learning, living, and governing so as to maintain a stable planet and a decent future.
