"Media Theory",
by D.Eppstein, J.-Cl.Falmagne and S.Ovchinnikov,
Springer, 2008. Sample chapter.
The focus of this book is a mathematical structure modeling a physical or biological system that can be in any of a number of 'states'. Each state is characterized by a set of binary features, and differs from some other neighbor state or states by just one of those feature. The evolution of such a system over time is considered. Such a structure is analyzed from algebraic and probabilistic (stochastic) standpoints.
