​Richard Clement is especially interested in the interplay between mathematics and experimental findings in neuroscience.  After an initial period of research in vision and eye movements he moved to the UK government owned Defence Evaluation and Research Agency at first working on biologically inspired machine vision and subsequently on nonlinear dynamics of electronic circuits.  He then moved to the Institute of Child Health of University College, London, to apply nonlinear dynamics to eye movements recorded from infants at Great Ormond Street Hospital.  After retirement, he worked part-time as an associate lecturer in mathematical modelling at the Open University whilst continuing developing the ideas in this book as an honorary research fellow in the mathematics department at Exeter university.
