Agreed,

Emergence is an adecuate book for someone who does not know anything about the subject. For such a profile it could be big eye opener. However for those who were expecting more concrete matters, it was shalow and lacking substance.

I can recomend "The Timeless Way of Building" by Christopher Alexander. Even when this book talks about architecture, it touches in very insightfull ways on emergence, patterns, and self orgaization.
