Limits of Predictability

herausgegeben von Yurii A. Kravtsov
One of the driving forces behind much of modern science and
technology is   the desire to foresee and thereby control the
future. In recent years,         however, it has become clear that,
even in a deterministic world, there is alimit to the
accuracy with which we can predict the future. This                  book
details, in a largely nontechnical style, the extent to
which we   can predict the future development of various
physical, biological and         socio-economic processes.
