While many books have discussed methodological advances in nonlinear dynamical systems theory (NDS), this volume is unique in its focus on NDS's role in the development of psychological theory. After an introductory chapter covering the fundamentals of chaos, complexity and other nonlinear dynamics, subsequent chapters provide in-depth coverage of each of the specific topic areas in psychology. A concluding chapter takes stock of the field as a whole, evaluating important challenges for the immediate future. The chapters are written by experts in the use of NDS in each of their respective areas, including biological, cognitive, developmental, social, organizational and clinical psychology. Each chapter provides an in-depth examination of theoretical foundations and specific applications and a review of relevant methods. This edited collection represents the state of the art in NDS science across the disciplines of psychology.
Chaos and Nonlinear Psychology

"Have you ever felt that human psychology is richer and more complex than the topics you learned in Psych 101, that great literature captured human motivational complexity better than scientists? Perhaps you, like the authors of this book, find that the linear math and statistical models that researchers have been using to capture psychology obscured many of the problems you would like to solve"--
