Since its founding, SFI has devoted itself to creating a new kind of scientific research community, pursuing emerging science. Operating as a small, visiting institution, SFI seeks to catalyze new collaborative, multidisciplinary projects that break down the barriers between the traditional disciplines, to spread its ideas and methodologies to other individuals, and to encourage the practical applications of its results. All titles from the Santa Fe Institute Studies in the Sciences of Complexity series will carry this imprint which is based on a Mimbres pottery design (circa A.D. 950-1150), drawn by Betsy Jones. The design was selected because the radiating feathers are evocative of the outreach of the Santa Fe Institute Program to many disciplines and institutions.
