ABSTRACT
With the logistic equation, the transition from steady, regular behavior to chaos came about by period-doubling. For other dynamical systems, the transition from orderly to chaotic motion might take place in any of several other ways. As a group, these types of transition make up a "rich and intricate landscape between order and chaos" (Percival 1989). (Actually, at least some types can also occur within the chaotic regime.) The transition may well be more recognizable than the chaos itself. In other cases, clear transition between order and chaos might not occur.
