Good nontechnical, nonfiction writing can provide a model for exposition. Well-written history and biography (e.g., works by H. W. Brand, Martin Gilbert, Paul Johnson, and William Manchester) are useful for learning to handle time and sequence. Well-written popular science books and novels (e.g., by such authors as Isaac Asimov, Michael Crichton, Steven Levy, and James Gleick) are useful in learning that the presentation of factual information need not be dull.

This is a difference equation widely used as a model in ecology and population dynamics (May (1974, 1987), Gleick (1987), Devaney (1992), Ott (1993)). Let Xn be the (normalized) number of individuals of some biological species present in year n. Then, the prescription (1.2.1) predicts the number of individuals in the following year n -I-1. The logistic map...

The investigation of chaotic dynamics has also spread to weather forecasting and the physical sciences. An excellent popularization by Gleick (1987) reviews the discovery of the phenomena, from the butterflies of Lorenz in the modeling of weather to complexity theory. What follows is only a brief introduction. 

Lorenz s paper (Lorenz 1963) is deep, prescient, and surprisingly readable— look it up It is also reprinted in Cvitanovic (1989a) and Hao (1990). For a captivating history of Lorenz s work and that of other chaotic heroes, see Gleick (1987). 

According to Gleick (1987, p. 69), May wrote the logistic map on a corridor blackboard as a problem for his graduate students and asked, What the Christ happens for r > r T The answer turns out to be complicated For many values of r, the sequence never settles down to a fixed point or a periodic orbit—... 

According to Gleick (1987, p. 149), Henon became interested in the problem after hearing a lecture by the physicist Yves Pomeau, in which Pomeau described the numerical difficulties he had encountered in trying to resolve the tightly packed sheets of the Lorenz attractor. The difficulties stem from the rapid volume contraction in the Lorenz system after one circuit around the attractor, a volume in phase space is typically squashed by a factor of about 14,000 (Lorenz 1963).
