This conference brought together scientists from diverse disciplines such as biomedical and electrical engineering, mathematics, physics, neurology, neuroscience, psychophysiology and psychology to discuss the application of nonlinear dynamics in the study of brain function. This is a relatively new field which involves measuring the properties of chaotic strange attractors in the human EEG. Probably the earliest and still most exciting result in the field is that 'the more chaos the better' is the rule in many physiological areas. We have only the most speculative ideas about why the brain might be chaotic and what the implications are if it really is. The potential is unimaginably large. This volume will serve to inspire others to pursue research in this field and point the way in some promising directions.

Mechanisms of chaotic dynamics in the olfactory system shown by simultaneous recording from bulb and cortex, S.L. Bressler and W.J. Freeman; controlling chaos - a selection mechanism for neural information processing?, M-Z Ding and J.A.S. Kelso; estimation of time-varying parameters in nonlinear models of biological time series, J. Goldbert and Y.K. Lee; the evolution with time of the spatial distribution of the largest Lyapunov exponent on the human epileptic cortex, L.D. Iasemidis and J.C. Sackellares; "Is It?" and "So What?" - a critical view of EEG chaos, B.H. Jansen; the largest Lyapunov exponent of the EEG in ECT seizures, A.D. Krystal and R.D. Weiner; some comments on the weaving of contemporaneous minds, A.J. Mandell, et al; construction and visualization of EEG state space portraits, J.C. Principe, et al; dimensional analysis of topographic EEG - some methodological considerations, W.S. Pritchard, et al; EEG and chaos - dimensional estimation of sensory and hypnotic processes, W.J. Ray, et al; toward non-linear psychodynamics - exploring the chaotic nature of mind and body processes, D.J. Redington and S.P. Reidbord; does the largest Lyapunov characteristic exponent quantify the dynamical complexity of the event-related potential? an algorithm using adaptive step-size control for variable propagation times, G.V. Wallenstein and A.J. Nash, et al.
