Complex Dynamics in Physiological Systems: From Heart to Brain edited by Syamal K. Dana, Prodyot K. Roy, Jürgen Kurths.

Nonlinear dynamics has become an important field of research in recent years in many areas of the natural sciences. In particular, it has potential applications in biology and medicine; nonlinear data analysis has helped to detect the progress of cardiac disease, physiological disorders, for example...
