Review: Extraordinary work...before time delivery by desertcart - The book is almost a tribute to early contributors to non-linear sciences. So many that even if I could, I could mention only fewer than few of them. Hence, I will skip ahead & won't come across partial towards anyone...well except Edward Lorenz! I also found the highest points of the book in the topics of universality, helium in a box, information theory, fractals & the rhythm of scales, mode locking, cross section of an attractor, coastline measurement, briefly mentioned theorem related to deterministic non-periodic flow, horseshoe, degrees of freedom... It is astonishing that even with so much progress, most of these topics are either not mentioned in mainstream curriculum or not appreciated as those should be. Therefore, the book is for everyone & anyone who may find non-linear sciences unnecessary, in the way or daunting. There are many excellent quotes by the pioneers of this field & author himself...some struck me like a lightning bolt while others lingered in the thoughts slowly taking over. More often then not, this made me to take the happy long pause to follow the racing of thoughts. In my little understanding of the science, I suppose the degrees of freedom I could understand here is perhaps a sibling to the topics of uncertainty principle and paradox of observations. Anyhow, I will certainly be back to refer this book again and again...yet not every fallback being exactly the same :)
Review: Fractal Universes - I am reading this again after 2 decades. Years ago was working on nonlinear dynamics of automotive transmissions. Read both this book and Prof. Moon's book which was easier for engineers like me. I must admit that there's much to learn even after such a long time. Enjoyed the book thoroughly once more.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A timeless masterpiece about the interconnectedness of chaos and order in our world.
*by N***F on 8 September 2023*

In James Gleick's groundbreaking 1997 book "Chaos: Making a New Science," he masterfully navigates the uncharted territory of chaos theory, weaving a captivating narrative that explores the profound implications of chaos in various scientific disciplines and everyday life. Gleick demystifies the complex concepts of nonlinear dynamics and fractals, offering readers a lucid and accessible introduction to a realm where unpredictability and order coexist. Drawing upon the lives and work of pioneering scientists like Edward Lorenz, Benoit Mandelbrot, and Mitchell Feigenbaum, Gleick crafts a compelling story that unveils the beauty and significance of chaos as an essential force shaping our understanding of nature, weather patterns, turbulence, and even the dynamics of human societies. "Chaos" stands as a timeless masterpiece, illuminating the interconnectedness of chaos and order in our world and forever altering our perception of reality.
