In low-dimensional (3-D) chaotic systems, this transition occurs via one of the following four known routes: period-doubling, quasi-periodicity, intermittency and crisis. I shall present recent results showing changes in routes to chaos with increasing number of degrees of freedom and discuss high-dimensional systems that exhibit new routes to chaos.
