Books in the Studies Of Nonlinear Phenomena In Life Science series

Provides a comprehensive overview of a nascent theory of medicine, including a chapter on the theory of complex networks as they pertain to medicine. This book is concerned with the application of fractals and chaos, as well as other concepts from nonlinear dynamics to biomedical phenomena.

The scientific paradigm implemented here is based on complexity science and presents a theoretical synthesis from different concurring sources. This book integrates the theory of mind force and human attractions descriptions of natural phenomena, research studies, statistical evidence and mathematical modeling.

Offers a lens through which modern society is shown to depend on complex networks for its stability. This text reviews, in non-mathematical language, what we know about the development of science in the twenty-first century and how that knowledge influences our world.

Presents an interdisciplinary introduction to the notion of fractal time, starting from scratch with a philosophical and perceptual puzzle. This book is suitable for those who work in the fields of cognitive and complexity sciences, psychology and the neurosciences, social medicine, philosophy and the arts.
