Introducing Chaos
Ziauddin Sardar et Iwona Abrams1998

If a butterfly flaps its wings in Brazil, does it cause a tornado in Texas ?

Chaos theory attempts to answer such baffling questions. Introducing Chaos explains how chaos makes its presence felt in events, it examines the roots of chaos in moden maths and physics, and explores the relationship between chaos and complexity, the unifying theory which suggests that all complex systems evolve from a few simple rules.
