Features: What is opportunity? How does opportunity arise? How unpredictable is the future? The exploration of answers to these questions constitutes the theme of this book. The author starts from the idea that opportunity has its causes, discusses lotteries and astrology, and then delves into the evolution of history, entropy, information, and even the true meaning of sex and intelligence. This book is easy to understand and serves as an excellent introductory read for lay readers to grasp chaos theory.
