Examining the mathematical structures of chaos and the self-similar geometric patterns (fractals) that often accompany chaotic attractors. CHAOS: An Introduction to Dynamical Systems

Analysis of systems where time is treated in separate steps, such as the logistic map.

Investigating how the qualitative behavior of a system changes as its parameters vary. Educational Features

The book is noted for its hands-on approach to learning, including:
