This book is aimed at advanced university students of physics and related disciplines. It reflects the evolution of a research area that receives contributions from numerous disciplines, such as physics, mathematics, chemistry and biology, among others. It establishes a path from the study of phase transitions to the current understanding of the behaviour of living matter through exploring experimental and theoretical concepts surrounding crystallography, physicochemistry of surfaces, magnetic systems, liquid crystals, polymers, statistical mechanics, superconductivity and superfluidity, growth of interfaces, fractals, non-linear systems, chaos and self-organization.

Isabel M. Irurzun is Professor at the Faculty of Science at the National University of La Plata, Argentina, and Independent Researcher at the National Council of Science and Technology, also in Argentina. She is author of more than 65 scientific papers in the fields of condensed matter, criticality and complex systems.

Leopoldo Garavaglia graduated from the Faculty of Sciences at the National University of La Plata, Argentina, where he is currently an assistant teacher. He is Associate Professional of the National Council of Science and Technology, also in Argentina. His scientific fields of interest include biological signal processing, biological mathematics, symmetry, and computer programming.
