商品描述内容简介Since the dramatic discovery of the mathematical concept of chaos in 1989, the controversy of its contents has settled down. This revised edition of "Does God Play Dice?" takes a fresh look at its achievements and potential. With a new preface and three completely new chapters, it includes the latest practical applications of chaos theory, such as developing intelligent heart pacemakers. All this provides a fascinating new answer to Einstien's question which provided the title of this book.作者简介IAN STEWART is Professor of Mathematics at the University of Warwick, as well as the Director of its Interdisciplinary Mathematical Research Programme. He is also Gresham Professor of Geometry at Gresham College, London.
