The Perfect Swarm: The Science of Complexity in Everyday Life by Len Fisher

4.0

Neat book -- not for dummies. Explains the mathematical principles behind why swarms of fish move all the the same time, how voting works, how to guess the right number of jelly beans in a jar. I won't pretend that I understood all the mathy parts, but there is enough explanation and real-life application to make this a very worthy read.
