Synopsis

A butterfly just flaps its beautiful wings, but a tornado storm may set off on the other side of the earth - the "butterfly effect" has become synonymous with chaos. From the grains of rice placed on the checkerboard, to the rabbits in the pizza garden, to the bell-shaped distribution of Galton's nail board, the betting strategy of roulette, to Obers' paradox proposing "why the night sky is dark" and the card game demonstrating "computers cannot create chaos", this small book uses vivid examples to explain chaos theory and its various applications in real life in a simple and easy-to-understand manner, opening the door to this frontier field for us.

Reader comments

This book is really interesting! It explains chaos theory with simple and easy-to-understand examples, so that even a math novice like me can easily understand it. I especially like the content about the "Butterfly Effect", it's really amazing! However, I kind of hate that guy named Galton. His nail board experiment is too complicated to understand! But this book is really great, highly recommended!

I'm Not a Drama God

I want to read a book similar to "I'm Not a Drama God". I have a play to sing to the ghosts and gods. The ghosts and gods have gone home. The topic is novel and the plot is simple, crude, easy to understand and not cliche.

Seeking Fellow Drama Gods

I remember watching a piece before that I really liked, but I can't remember where I watched it. . . It seems that the Shinto star felt sorry for Ling and reshaped him into a two- or three-year-old body. They all hoped that Ling could embark on their own Shinto. The Wu Shendao even asked Yao to abduct Ling, but he had no impression.
