Ever since the historical discovery of the now-famous Lorenz system in 1963, a large number of nonlinear systems that can produce chaos have been - served, constructedandanalyzed. Infact, chaostheoryhasbecomeindispe- able for science and engineering at all levels of research today. The most - tive recent researchincludes chaos controland chaos synchronization, among others, with a visible trend toward real-world applications. The book titled "Evolutionary Algorithms and Chaotic Systems," edited by Ivan Zelinka, Sergej Celikovsky, Hendrik Richter and Guanrong Chen, is a timely volume to be...
