This book presents the general concepts of self-organized
spatio-temporal ordering processes. These concepts are demonstrated
via prototypical examples of recent advances in materials science.
Particular emphasis is on nano scale soft matter in physics,
chemistry, biology and biomedicine. The questions addressed embrace
a broad spectrum of complex nonlinear phenomena, ranging from
self-assembling near the thermodynamical equilibrium to dissipative
structure formation far from equilibrium. Their mutual interplay
gives rise to increasing degrees of hierarchical order. Analogues
are pointed out, differences characterized and efforts are made to
reveal common features in the mechanistic description of those
phenomena.
