From Clocks to Chaos : : The Rhythms of Life / / Michael C. Mackey, Leon Glass.
In an important new contribution to the literature of chaos, two distinguished researchers in the field of physiology probe central theoretical questions about physiological rhythms. Topics discussed include: How are rhythms generated? How do they start and stop? What are the effects of perturbation...
