The most comprehensive, if not always the most accessible, source of Kauffman's work on random Boolean networks as models for gene regulation is contained in The Origins of Order [70]. Some of his ideas are developed in a less formal, and more speculative, way in At Home in the Universe [71]. A readable overview of the analogy between basins of attraction and cell types is provided by Wuensche in [144]. The best starting point for a description of the generalised logic formalism is given in a pair of recent articles in Chaos [128,127], which review and summarize many previous results. A good non-technical description of the theoretical findings from this research program can be found in [125]. Similarly, a comprehensive overview of the De Jong's approach to qualitative simulation, describing both the formalism and its relation to other similar approaches, is [33].
