This book aims to familiarise the reader with the essential properties of the chaotic dynamics of Hamiltonian systems. It includes unique material on separatrix chaos, small nonlinearity chaos, fractional kinetics, and discussions on Maxwell's Demon and the foundation of statistical physics. Special mathematical tools not typical of physics are avoided.The book is ideally suited for all those who are actively working on the problems of dynamical chaos. It introduces the physicist to the world of Hamiltonian chaos and the mathematician to actual physical problems. The material can also be used by graduate students.
