Chaos: Making a New Science 

Chaos: Making a New Science is the first popular book about chaos theory (the study of apparently random or unpredictable behaviour in systems governed by deterministic laws). It describes the Mandelbrot set, Julia sets, and Lorenz attractors without using complicated mathematics. It portrays the efforts of dozens of scientists whose separate work contributed to the developing field. The text is often used as an introduction to the topic for the mathematical layperson. The book approaches the history of chaos theory chronologically, starting with Edward Norton Lorenz and the butterfly effect, through Mitchell Feigenbaum, and ending with more modern applications.
