Rezensionen

From the reviews:

"This book presents various contributions to the construction of life-like artifacts that globally show adaptation and evolution, as in the artificial life paradigm. ... The book is unique in that it attempts to mix various ideas on building artificial life in hardware ... . the book moves toward new methods and tools that represent the cutting edge of research. ... this book is appropriate for research; in the long term, it can serve as a reference." (G. Gini, ACM Computing Reviews, November, 2009)
