5.0 out of 5 stars Beyond the ordinary, context-dependent realization, February 28, 2004
By 
Keith Elkin "cElegans" (Frederick, MD United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Technological Innovation as an Evolutionary Process (Hardcover)
The books union of detail with a wide perspective is one of the best I have read combining traditional and sometimes restrictive scientific research with a wider perspective while maintaining rigor. My favorite phrases include "Is evolution compatible with design", "coevolution of marketable artifacts", "genus of complex systems" and "context-dependent realization", "soft inheritance" the list goes on, but the book is a wonderful modern synthesis of classical memes with new knowledge.

My perspective is teh development of things from memes to chips to organisms and everything in-between, thus epigenesis, computer science, are a continuum with in my context.
