This book was originally conceived as a continuation in theme of
the collec- tive monograph Limits of Predictability (Yu. A.
Kravtsov, Ed. , Springer Series in Synergetics, Vol. 60,
Springer-Verlag, Heidelberg, 1993). The main thrust of that book
was to examine the various effects and factors (system non-
stationarity, measurement noise, predictive model accuracy, and so
on) that may limit, in a fundamental fashion, our ability to
mathematically predict physical and man-made phenomena and events.
Particularly interesting was the diversity of fields from which the
papers and examples were drawn, in- cluding climatology, physics,
biophysics, cybernetics, synergetics, sociology, and ethnogenesis.
Twelve prominant Russian scientists, and one American (Prof. A. J.
Lichtman) discussed their philosophical and scientific standpoints
on the problem of the limits of predictability in their various
fields. During the preparation of that book, the editor (Yu. A. K)
had the great pleasure of interacting with world-renowned Russian
scientists such as oceanologist A. S. Monin, geophysicist V. I.
Keilis-Borok, sociologist I. V. Bestuzhev-Lada, histo- rian L. N.
Gumilev, to name a few. Dr. Angela M. Lahee, managing editor of the
Synergetics Series at Springer, was enormously helpful in the
publishing of that book. In 1992, Prof. H. Haken along with Dr.
Lahee kindly supported the idea of publishing a second volume on
the theme of nonlinear system predictability, this time with a more
international flavor.
