A work of popular science in the tradition of Stephen Hawking and Carl Sagan, James Gleicks groundbreaking bestseller Chaos introduces his readership to chaos theory, one of the most significant waves of scientific knowledge in our time.
From Edward Lorenzs discovery of the Butterfly Effect, to Mitchell Feigenbaums calculation of a universal constant, to Benoit Mandelbrots concept of fractals, which created a new geometry of nature, Gleicks engaging narrative focuses on the key figures whose genius converged to chart an innovative direction for science.
In Chaos, Gleick makes the story of chaos theory not only fascinating but also accessible to beginners, and opens our eyes to a surprising new view of the universe.
