Chemistry nobel Ilya Prigogine has defended the idea beautifully in his books embedding the hard science in a wider humanistic context, including biology, ecology, urbanism, societal, entomology and other examples. He kindled my interest in dynamics and makes a huge effort to be understandable.

Lee Smolin, Time Reborn (although he is unaware of the work of Henri Bergson before him).

I enjoyed "A Beginner's Guide to Reality" by Jim Baggott.
