I just read a review and thought this might be a good place to share it..
I am sure many people who find themselves attracted to AI War will also have some idea of who Stephen Wolfram is, many also will have read some of Greg Egan's science fiction (If not I highly recommend you do - he is probably THE best hard SF writer today).
Anyway, here is a link to a review that Greg Egan did of Wolfram's book, "A New Kind of Science"
