Overview

This novel book introduces cellular automata from a rigorous nonlinear dynamics perspective. It supplies the missing link between nonlinear differential and difference equations to discrete symbolic analysis. A surprisingly useful interpretations of cellular automata in terms of neural networks is also given. The book provides a scientifically sound and original analysis, and classifications of the empirical results presented in Wolfram's monumental ';New Kind of Science.';

"""This book is a colourful presentation with fresh ideas and attractive illustrations ... those studying non-linear sciences, electronic engineering, mathematics and logics, complexity and emergent phenomena, and possibly even chemistry and biology will certainly discover exciting concepts, analogies and research tools in this refreshing text. Anyone from freshmen to elderly academics will find parts interesting to them. The volumes are somewhat special and exciting because they possess a unique 'Chua brand' and show gradual development of ideas and concepts in an educational and entertaining hence mathematically rigorous manner.""
