I have had a report from Columbia U. Press that the republication of Life,
Itself in paperback is again postponed-- to autumn of 2004. Also, they are
thinking of adding a forward to the book, written by either of two men
whose names I do not recognize. I have done some research on both, and as part
of that research, I would like to ask the list subscribers whether you have any
information on these individuals. Specifically, are either or both of them
"qualified" to speak authoritatively about Rosennean Complexity? If you have
some information and don't feel comfortable posting it on the list, by all means
please contact me directly. The names are Buzz Holling (Retired from University
of Florida) and Steve Pacala (at Princeton).
Thanks, folks.
