Summary
This document page (188) is an excerpt from a scientific paper or proposal contained within House Oversight records. It discusses the application of nonlinear dynamical systems theory, chaos theory, and statistical physics to neurobiology and psychiatry (specifically manic-depressive syndromes and schizophrenia). It argues for the validity of using qualitative tools to find universalities in biological systems despite the inability to solve specific equations.

"Characteristics which discriminate between experimental versus control conditions in parametric computational and real physiological and pharmacological experiments serve to generate and test ideas and imagery arising out of behavior observed in both biological and abstract dynamical realms."Source
