The field of Nonlinear Dynamics and Complexity consists of a large body of theoretical and experimental work with many applications, which is nevertheless governed and held together by some very basic principles, such as control, networks and optimization. The individual topics are interdisciplinary which makes it difficult for researchers to see what new solutions - which could be mostrelevant for them - have been found by their scientific neighbours. Thereforeits seems quite urgent to provide reviews where researchers or newcomers to the field can find the most important results that have been found recently, described in a fashion which breaks the barriers between the disciplines. Such reviews exist already for other fields - as for example for Computational Physics - which is also interdisciplinary. It is the review character which filtersout the most relevant information of the latest research and the effort to write in a language that breaks the barriers between disciplines which sets thisproject apart from already existing specialized journals such as Bifurcation and Chaos, Physica D or Nonlinearity.Editor: Heinz Georg Schuster Editorial Board: Christoph Adami, California Institute of Technology, USA Stefan Bornholdt, University of Bremen, Germany Wolfram Just, Queen Mary University of London, UK Kunihiko Kaneko, University of Tokyo, Japan Ron Lifshitz, Tel Aviv University, Israel Ernst Niebur, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, USA Guenter Radons, TU Chemnitz, Germany Eckehard Schoell, TU Berlin, Germany Hong Zhao, Xiamen University, China Heinz Georg Schuster is Professor (em.) of Theoretical Physics at the University of Kiel in Germany. In 1971 he attained his doctorate and in 1976 he was appointed Professor at the University of Frankfurt am Main in Germany. He was a visiting professor at the Weizmann-Institute of Science in Israel and at the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, USA. He is author and editor of research monographs and topical handbooks on chaos theory, nonlinear dynamics and neural networks, but also on popular science books.
