I remember this book + I own it. It is a very good book but way over my head. (Additionally, it serves well as a doorstop).
Still I admire the amount of diligence and energy that went into this. Wolfram spent several years _obsessed_ with this stuff. See his 2012 blogpost about his "quantified self" recordings: https://blog.stephenwolfram.com/2012/03/the-personal-analyti...
Maybe A New Kind of Science will create a surge sometime (just like Neural Networks were declared dead for several years, then Deep Learning came along and they took off)
