Product Description

Chaos: Making a New Science by James Gleick

In the mid-1970s, a handful of scientists in different fields began to discover something extraordinary: that the world’s most complex and unpredictable phenomena — weather, turbulence, the human heartbeat, the rise and fall of animal populations — were governed not by randomness, but by a new kind of order. They called it chaos. And the science they created would change the way we understand the universe.

In Chaos: Making a New Science, James Gleick — one of the greatest science writers of our time — tells the story of this revolutionary discovery with the pace and drama of a thriller. From the first hints of chaos in the weather models of Edward Lorenz to the fractal geometry of Benoit Mandelbrot, from the strange attractors of David Ruelle to the universal constants of Mitchell Feigenbaum, Gleick brings to life the scientists, the ideas, and the paradigm-shifting moments that gave birth to one of the most important scientific revolutions of the 20th century.

A Pulitzer Prize finalist and New York Times bestseller, Chaos has sold over a million copies worldwide and remains one of the most celebrated works of popular science ever written.
