Conway’s Game of Life: Mathematics and Construction

  From the book review: My plan for the book is to mimic its subject matter – set up an initial configuration by leaving a copy in the math lounge and see what behaviors emerge.

  Andrew Ilachinski's book, "Cellular Automata: A Discrete Universe" is phenomenol and broad and covers a lot. Highly recommended if you are into CA.

  Does it matter where i grab a physical copy from ? The link on the author page links to lulu.com but the book is also available on amazon.com. I would prefer to get it through amazon but i also want to make sure the authors get as much from the sell as possible

    It all comes down to printing costs and what percent they pay on the profit. Lulu seems to offer a higher percentage to the author as a metric to your question. Interestingly, Amazon has like 2.4 billion site visits vs. Lulu's 2 million, so the author would stand to make more on Amazon simply in volume of sales potential (1000x more).
