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.
