Summary

Chaos and Dynamical Systems presents an accessible, clear introduction to dynamical systems and chaos theory, important and exciting areas that have shaped many scientific fields. While the rules governing dynamical systems are well-specified and simple, the behavior of many dynamical systems is remarkably complex. Of particular note, simple deterministic dynamical systems produce output that appears random and for which long-term prediction is impossible. Using little math beyond basic al…

Critics Review

“Feldman succeeds in introducing the reader to the world of dynamic systems and the, almost mythical, chaos that they can produce.”—Adhemar Bultheel, European Mathematical Society”[A] gentle and loving introduction to dynamical systems… . Chaos and Dynamical Systems is a book for everyone from the layman to the expert.”—David S. Mazel, MAA Reviews
