In this short quantitative introduction, the authors illustrate all the main features of chaos, using the damped, driven pendulum as the primary model. It includes analytic and computer exercises with which the reader may duplicate and expand upon the simulations demonstrated in the book.

."..an excellent introduction to chaotic dynamics for anyone with a reasonable undergraduate knowledge of physics and mathematics." Peter J. Bryant, SIAM Review
The previous edition of this text was the first to provide a quantitative introduction to chaos and nonlinear dynamics at undergraduate level and was widely praised for the clarity of the writing and for the unique and effective way in which the authors presented the basic ideas. This revised and expanded second edition includes additional material on the analysis and characterisation of chaotic data, and applications of chaos.
