| Title | Chaos : The World of Nonperiodic Oscillations |
| Author(s) | R??ssler, Otto E;Letellier, Christophe |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2020. |
| Description | XV, 234 p. 388 illus., 25 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Written in the 1980s by one of the fathers of chaos theory, Otto E. R??ssler, the manuscript presented in this volume eventually never got published. Almost 40 years later, it remains astonishingly at the forefront of knowledge about chaos theory and many of the examples discussed have never been published elsewhere. The manuscript has now been edited by Christophe Letellier - involved in chaos theory for almost three decades himself, as well as being active in the history of sciences - with a minimum of changes to the original text. Finally released for the benefit of specialists and non-specialists alike, this book is equally interesting from the historical and the scientific points of view: an unconventionally modern approach to chaos theory, it can be read as a classic introduction and short monograph as well as a collection of original insights into advanced topics from this field |

| Title | Encounter with Chaos : Self-Organized Hierarchical Complexity in Semiconductor Experiments |
| Author(s) | Peinke, Joachim;Parisi, J??rgen;R??ssler, Otto E;Stoop, Ruedi |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 1992. |
| Description | X, 289 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Our life is a highly nonlinear process. It starts with birth and ends with death; in between there are a lot of ups and downs. Quite often, we believe that stable and steady situations, probably easy to capture by linearization, are paradisiacal, but already after a short period of everyday routine we usually become bored and seek change, that is, nonlinearities. If we reflect for a while, we notice that our life and our perceptions are mainly determined by nonlinear phenomena, for example, events occurring suddenly and unexpectedly. One may be surprised by how long scientists tried to explain our world by models based on a linear ansatz. Due to the lack of typical nonlinear patterns, although everybody experienced nonlinearities, nobody could classify them and, thus,?? study them further. The discoveries of the last few decades have finally provided access to the world of nonlinear phenomena and have initiated a unique inter?? disciplinary field of research: nonlinear science. In contrast to the general tendency of science to become more branched out and specialized as the result of any progress, nonlinear science has brought together many different disciplines. This has been motivated not only by the immense importance of nonlinearities for science, but also by the wonderful simplicity ohhe concepts. Models like the logistic map can be easily understood by high school students and have brought revolutionary new insights into our scientific under?? standing |
