Product Description
The question is familiar to everyone: Does a butterfly flapping its wings cause a storm on the other side of the world? Chaos is concerned with whether sometimes imperceptibly small changes have a dominant effect on shaping the future. Here, we are talking about a concept that is as intuitive an idea as it is ingrained in all the constitutive laws of the physical world. Smith, one of the most competent names in the field, analyzes dozens of situations where countless possibilities are intertwined, from weather forecast tables to roulette tables in casinos. This is an expert, concise, and understandable guide, characteristic of a discipline that has been the source of some of the most exciting discoveries in the scientific world in recent years, particularly in mathematics and statistics.
