Map of Complexity Science

Brian Castellani of the Sociology and Complexity Science blog and the art & science factory website has created a nice diagram entitled "the map of complexity science." The map is a conceptual and historical overview of complexity science from the 1940s to the current day. Not only does the map highlight important players in the field (such as Stuart Kauffman) but also demonstrates how agent-based modeling, cellular automata, and genetic algorithms are linked together and more generally with complexity science. The map is well worth exploring as it has many hyperlinks to other sites.
