The new edition of this monograph provides a comprehensive overview of the field of chaos research. The authors present recent developments such as synchronization and systems with many degrees of freedom but put also a strong emphasis on the comprehensible presentation of mathematical foundations. Illustrated in color, this fourth edition features sections on chaos control, unstable periodic orbits, the synchronization of chaotic systems, and spatiotemporal chaos. Students about to begin research as well as practising scientists will find this book well worth reading.

Heinz Georg Schuster Deterministic Chaos An Introduction This third edition of Deterministic Chaos has been updated and augmented with an extra chapter on "controlling chaos". Deterministic Chaos has been translated into Japanese, Chinese, Russian, Polish, and German, and has become a standard text for students and researchers who need a concise introduction into the field of chaos. From reviews of a previous edition: In this book, Schuster gives a very useful summary of the main ideas of the subject as it now stands. Although a physicist by training and style, he organizes his treatment by the logic of the mathematics, which is based on the concept of a dynamical system. Students about to begin research into chaos, and practising scientists new to the subject, will find this book well worth reading. Nature This text sets a standard which other authors and publishers in physics should strive to meet. Physics Bulletin
