Geometría de los sistemas vivos y su importancia en Medicina
We analyze the most relevant concepts about complexity of sciences, showing examples and consequences in medical sciences. In the first section we introduce some basic concepts about fractals and its relationship with the geometry of nature and chaos dynamics. We also introduce notions of critic sys...
