Chaos
£7.58
This book brings together different work in the new field of physics called the chaos theory an extension of classical mechanics in which simple & complex causes are seen to interact. Mathematics may only be able to solve simple linear equations which experiment has pushed nature into obeying in a limited way but now that computers can map the whole plane of solutions of non-linear equations a new vision of nature is revealed. The implications are staggeringly universal in all areas of scientific work & philosophical thought. ...

Chapel At The Edge Of
The World
£5.99
Emilio & Rosa are childhood sweethearts engaged to be married. But it is 1942 & the war has taken Emilio far from Italy to a tiny Orkney island where he is a POW. Rosa must wait for him to return & help her mother run the family hotel on the shores of Lake Como in Italy. Feeling increasingly frustrated with his situation Emilio is inspired by the idea of building a chapel on the barren isl&. The prisoners band together to create an extraordinary building out of little more than salvaged odds & ends & homemade paints. Whilst Emilios chapel will remain long after the POW camp has been left to the sheep will his love for Rosa survive the hardships of war & separation? For Rosa is no longer the girl that he left behind. She is being drawn further into the Italian resistance movement & closer to danger as friendships & allegiances are ever complicated by the war. Human perseverance & resilience are at the heart of this strong debut & the small Italian chapel remains as it does in reality on the island of Lambs Holm as a symbol of these qualities. ...

Chaos

Chaos exists in systems all around us. Even the simplest system of cause and effect can be subject to chaos denying us accurate predictions of its behaviour and sometimes giving rise to astonishing structures of large-scale order. Our growing understanding of Chaos Theory is having fascinating applications in the real world - from technology to global warming politics human behaviour and even gambling on the stock market. Leonard Smith shows that we all have an intuitive understanding of chaotic systems. He uses accessible maths and physics (replacing complex equations with simple examples like pendulums railway lines and tossing coins) to explain the theory and points to numerous examples in philosophy and literature (Edgar Allen Poe Chang-Tzu Arthur Conan Doyle) that illuminate the
problems. The beauty of fractal patterns and their relation to chaos as well as the history of chaos and its uses in the real world and implications for the philosophy of science are all discussed in this Very Short Introduction.
