What is On the non-linear motions of the heart: Fractals, chaos and cardiac dynamics about?

## Introduction This chapter describes some applications of non-linear dynamics to cardiac physiology and to cell to cell signalling in circulatory control. Our goal is to introduce the general reader to concepts that offer new perspectives on problems of historic interest, including the anatomy of the cardiovascular system, the mechanism of physiologic heart rate variability, and the dyna mics of sudden cardiac death. Although physiology and clinical medicine are among the richest sources of non-linear behaviour, concepts from non-linear science are still alien to most investigators in these disciplines (
