Gleik describes Chaos as the parts of the world that are unpredictable, apparently random, disorderly, erratic, irregular, unruly, and misbehaved, a pattern which he studied and described in his book. It includes description of terms like Julia sets, Lorenz Attractors, and Mandelbrot Set which are illustrated with sketches and photographs. Chaos defines a completely random phenomenon which defies ways of normal science and strays away from accepted universal behaviour. It was the first book which introduced the concept of Chaos, a completely new science. This edition of the best selling book by James Gleik, Chaos, was published by Minerva in 1997.
