However, beneath our search for order lies a fundamental fear of disorder. It is difficult to imagine true chaos, and even harder to describe it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"display: inline !important; float: none; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: inherit; orphans: 2; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"border-bottom-color: currentColor; border-bottom-style: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-image-outset: 0; border-image-repeat: stretch; border-image-slice: 100%; border-image-source: none; border-image-width: 1; border-left-color: currentColor; border-left-style: none; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-color: currentColor; border-right-style: none; border-right-width: 0px; border-top-color: currentColor; border-top-style: none; border-top-width: 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 10px; orphans: 2; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 12px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; vertical-align: baseline; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;\"\u003eIn \"The Imagined Chaos\", Martin Meisel, with great passion and enthusiasm, makes a tremendous effort to demonstrate, reveal, and rationalize absolute chaos. For this purpose, he tells the story of the social, psychological, and cosmological turning points of the image of chaos. With examples from literature, philosophy, painting, graphic arts, science, linguistics, music, and films, he recounts the extraordinary story of the transformation of chaos from destructiveness to an image with the potential to provide freedom and energy in the 18th and 19th centuries.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"display: inline !important; float: none; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: inherit; orphans: 2; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"border-bottom-color: currentColor; border-bottom-style: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-image-outset: 0; border-image-repeat: stretch; border-image-slice: 100%; border-image-source: none; border-image-width: 1; border-left-color: currentColor; border-left-style: none; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-color: currentColor; border-right-style: none; border-right-width: 0px; border-top-color: currentColor; border-top-style: none; border-top-width: 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 10px; orphans: 2; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 12px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; vertical-align: baseline; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;\"\u003eMeisel, who melds readings of Sophocles, Plato, Lucretius, Calderón, Milton, Haydn, Blake, Faraday, Chekhov, Faulkner, Wells, and Beckett with paintings by Brueghel, Rubens, Goya, Turner, Dix, Dada, and Futurist artists, draws attention to the revolution in the treatment of energy and entropy in thermodynamics. The author ultimately uses this chaotic framework to explain concepts such as meaning, purpose, mortality, and the mind.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cu\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003csub\u003e\u003c\/sub\u003e\u003csup\u003e\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003cstrike\u003e\u003c\/strike\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Koç Üniversitesi Yayınları","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39408954343619,"sku":"9786052116920","price":80.0,"currency_code":"TRY","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/3950\/7395\/products\/9786052116920.jpg?v=1616017253","url":"https:\/\/yemkitabevi.com\/en-us\/products\/kaos-imgelemi_350413-html","provider":"YEM Kitabevi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
