Die vierte Auflage dieser vielfach praxisbewährten Monografie zur Chaosforschung wurde überarbeitet, deutlich erweitert und durch farbige Illustrationen optisch noch ansprechender gestaltet. Nach wie vor legen die Autoren Wert auf eine ausführliche Darstellung der mathematischen Grundlagen. Neu aufgenommen wurden Kapitel zu modernen Entwicklungen, etwa zur Chaossteuerung und zur Synchronisierung biologischer Systeme.
