I knew nothing about chaos theory prior to reading Chaos. Chaos was published in 1987 when the theory was still in its infancy and a lot of what Gleick was writing about was brand new. But it's been 25 years so I feel like I didn't get a complete picture.
The book is very well researched and written, but it's a hard concept to wrap your head around and I personally still don't feel like I understand it all that well.
I'm quite interested in chaos theory now, but I feel like it would be beneficial for me to find another, more recent book that would improve my understanding and catch me up on the developments of the last 25 years.
