Did you know that computation can be implemented with cytoskeleton networks, chemical reactions, liquid marbles, plants, polymers, and dozens of other living and inanimate substrates? Do you know what is reversible computing or DNA microscopy? Are you aware that randomness aids computation? Would you like to make logical circuits from enzymatic reactions? Have you ever tried to implement digital logic with Minecraft? Do you know that eroding sandstones can compute too? This volume reviews most of the key attempts in coming up with an alternative way of computation. In doing so, the authors show that we do not need computers to compute and we do not need computation to infer. It invites readers to rethink the computer and computing and appeals to computer scientists, mathematicians, physicists, and philosophers. The topics are presented in a lively and easily accessible manner and make for ideal supplementary reading across a broad range of subjects.
