This encyclopedia provides an authoritative single source for understanding and applying the concepts of complexity theory together with the tools and measures for analyzing complex systems in all fields of science and engineering. It links fundamental concepts of mathematics and computational sciences to applications in the physical sciences, engineering, biomedicine, economics and the social sciences.

A unique resource for understanding and applying the concepts of complexity theory through mathematics and computational techniques, this Encyclopedia extends the usefulness of complexity and system science to a much wider audience than ever before.

Hundreds of articles on the mathematical and modeling basis for approaching complex systems, together with hundreds more on the progress using these tools in the fields of physics, econometrics, ecosystems, climate change, weather prediction, nanoelectronics, complex networks, quantum computing, chemistry, astrophysics, geophysics, systems biology, physical biology, bioinformatics, medicine, system dynamics, engineering, control and dynamical systems, and robotics as well as social, economics and political sciences.

The articles are organized in an A-Z format.

For an overview of the Topical Section, the Topical Table of Contents and the complete list of articles and their authors, see the links on the right.

A public service film was produced by the Environmental Protection Agency of Dr. Meyers' chemical desulfurization invention for air pollution control.

was published in 2000, also by John Wiley & Sons.

Dr. Meyers has worked with more than 20 Nobel laureates during his career.

Assembles for the first time the concepts and tools for analyzing complex systems in a wide range of fields

Serves as an interdisciplinary reference linking fundamental concepts of mathematics and computational sciences to applications in the physical sciences, engineering, biomedicine, economics and the social sciences

Edited by renowned encyclopedia editor Robert A. Meyers

Appeals to audiences from undergraduate students to researchers and practitioners

Reflects the real world by integrating complexity with the deterministic equations and concepts that define matter, energy, and the four forces identified in nature

Complexity science is an emerging discipline that harnesses sophisticated frameworks to analyze and explain adaptable and changeable natural systems. Complexity and systems science can be applied such diverse problems as the structure, history and future of the universe; the biological basis of consciousness; predictability, dynamics and extent of natural disasters; climate change; traffic management; and business cycles. The Encyclopedia of Complexity and Systems Science provides an authoritative single source for understanding and applying the concepts of complexity theory through mathematics and computational techniques. The Encyclopedia relates these to the tools and measures for analyzing complex systems in all fields of science and engineering. Coverage includes theories of self-organization, complex systems, synergetics, dynamical systems, turbulence, catastrophes, instabilities, nonlinearity, stochastic processes, chaos, neural networks, cellular automata, adaptive systems, and genetic algorithms. This unique work extends the understanding and usefulness of complexity and system science to a much wider audience than ever before.
