I ran into Stuart Kauffman at the University of Pennsylvania in the years 1988-1990. Bright guy, his ideas about evolution as a rugged landscape and how evolution can be considered an optimization process on this landscape have to be heard to be believed. Good stuff, in my opinion.

Stuart Kauffman has an M.D. degree and has worked in evolutionary biology, genetics, and the theory of complexity. He is not a physicist, and says as much at the start of chapter 10 of his book Investigations. Yet this article is classified as "within the scope of WikiProject Physics, which collaborates on articles related to physics". Shouldn't it be moved to a different category? --John Walker (fourmilab.ch) 12:29, 27 February 2007 (UTC) Yes you are right he acn be labelled as an biologist or evlotunioary economist
