Some older references, from the first wave of fascination with the subject:

1) Baumol, W. J., & Benhabib, J. (1989). Chaos: significance, mechanism, and economic applications. The journal of economic perspectives, 77-105.

A general introductory overview.

2) Lorenz, H. W. (1993). Nonlinear dynamical economics and chaotic motion (Vol. 334). Berlin: Springer.

Theoretical treatment

3) Brock, W. A., Hsieh, D. A., & LeBaron, B. (1991). Nonlinear dynamics, chaos, and instability.
