This book explains the quantitative reasoning required by the fractional calculus applied to complex physical, social, and biological phenomena. Fractional calculus is inextricably linked to complexity and provides a way to think systematically about complex phenomena without restricting it to a particular discipline. The book presents the case for science moving away from the fragmented disciplinary constructs devised to make the understanding of complex phenomena intellectually manageable, thus regaining its integrated nature as 'natural philosophy' and underscoring how fractional calculus is the vehicle for accomplishing this task.

    This book is by far the most comprehensive treatment of point and space groups, and their meaning and applications. Its completeness makes it especially useful as a text, since it gives the instructor the flexibility to best fit the class and goals. The instructor, not the author, decides what is in the course. And it is the prime book for reference, as material is much more li...

    Newton foresaw the limitations of geometry’s description of planetary behavior and developed fluxions (differentials) as the new language for celestial mechanics and as the way to implement his laws of mechanics. Two hundred years later Mandelbrot introduced the notion of fractals into the scientific lexicon of geometry, dynamics, and statistics and in so doing suggested ways t...

    One of my favorite quotes is from a letter of Charles Darwin (1887): 'I have long discovered that geologists never read each other’s works, and that the only object in writing a book is proof of earnestness, and that you do not form your opinions without undergoing labour of some kind. ' It is not clear if this private opinion of Darwin was one that h...
