      About the Book

      Edit

      "Particles. They come in all sizes and shapes. They aggregate into complex structures. We ourselves are made of them, even as we exist as particles in a larger system.



      "Particles can form simple swarms with simple behaviors. They can exist in a complex system with simple rules, generating complex behaviors. They can be active individuals and steadfast obstacles. They can wear disguises, and trick us into thinking they are something else.



      "A single particle may be the tail of a comet, the extrusion of a point, they can act under the surface without ever being seen directly ...so many possibilities."



      --Kristin Henry
