I can't remember now if I wrote about it in the book, but settling on a decent library was quite difficult. There's so many, with various trade-offs, and some haven't been updated for years! Platypus is great, a few of my PhD students are using it too. Plenty of respect for the author(s)! I'm still updating the book every now and again - eventually working towards one of my research directions on neuroevolution. Some of the classical GA's are good teaching vehicles, but as it's a practical book I'd like to move towards the state-of-the-art too :)
