Game of Life Cellular Automata is a book of articles about Conway's Game of Life and other cellular automata that was compiled by Andrew Adamatzky and published in 2010. It is split into eight sections: "Historical", "Classical Topics", "Asynchronous, Continuous and Memory-Enriched Automata", "Non-orthogonal Lattices", "Complexity", "Physics", "Music", and "Computation".
