The centuries-old belief of humankind that the world with all its forms and structures was created by supernatural forces has been shaken by science in the recent decades which discovered the exciting possibility of a self-created and self-creating world, of self-organization. The transitions from chaos to order, the nature of self-organization, the various approaches to it and certain philosophical inferences are outlined in this book. Synergetics is a remarkable confluence of many strands of thought. This makes it a paradigm in modern culture. This volume exposes the reader to striking new vistas in physics and mathematics, chemistry and biology, social sciences and philosophy: all interlocked around the concept of self-organization.
