This book is an in-depth and broad text on the subject of chaos in
dynamical systems. It is intended to serve both as a graduate
course text for science and engineering students, and as a
reference and introduction to the subject for researchers. Within
the past decade scientists, mathematicians and engineers have
realized that a large variety of systems exhibit complicated
evolution with time. This complicated behaviour, called chaos,
occurs so frequently that it has become important for workers in
many disciplines to have a good grasp of the fundamentals and basic
tools of the emerging science of chaotic dynamics. The author's
style is pedagogic, and the book will be of value both as a
graduate text and also as a reference work for researchers in
science and engineering needing to understand this important new
subject. Homework problems are also included throughout the book.
