The Incomputable [E-Book] : Journeys Beyond the Turing Barrier / edited by S. Barry Cooper, Mariya I. Soskova.
This book questions the relevance of computation to the physical universe. Our theories deliver computational descriptions, but the gaps and discontinuities in our grasp suggest a need for continued discourse between researchers from different disciplines, and this book is unique in its focus on the...

"name" and "number" keys or a flat string containing only the series
name. We should account for both cases to maximize compatibility. */?>
