This book is the outcome of an original and interdisciplinary undertaking by the Academy of Young Scholars and Artists based in Wrocaw, Poland. One of the fundamental objectives of the Academy is to improve and foster communication between outstanding representatives of various fields of science, the humanities and art. In this regard to close the gap between the sciences, humanities and the arts and replace it with a unifying yet diverse vision of human cognition a group of over 50 scholars and artists were asked to present their perspectives on the concepts of complexity and simplicity in the form of articles or artworks that made reference to their specific disciplines. Hence, the material presented in this compilation may serve as an interdisciplinary source of inspiration for a wide variety of readers. The choice of the main theme complexity, simplicity, and the various kinds of thought-provoking dialectics unfolding between these was motivated by a comprehensive and ongoing debate observable in the area of the methodology of the sciences as well as in various spheres of art.
