This is the revised and updated 3rd edition of this highly regarded textbook. A new chapter on controlling chaos has been added. Translations into Japanese, Chinese, German, Russian and Polish demonstrate the international interest in this book. From reviews of former editions:
In this book, Schuster gives a very useful summary of the main ideas of the subject as it now stands. Although a physist 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
