This book describes a completely novel mathematical development which has already influenced probability theory and has potential for application to engineering and to areas of pure mathematics.

Attention is focussed on an analysis of the relationship between the stimulus and the short to medium term evolution of a receiver. The core result of the book is a continuity...
