  Mathematics contains an important study field under the name Chaos theory. Chaos theory studies the concept and behavior of highly insensitive dynamical systems. It also studies behavior of dynamic systems in initial conditions, which often turns out to be super sensitive at a very high level. In Chaos theory, this concept is referred as Butterfly effect, which is the main field of study in this theory. From which, various branches are spread and constantly progressing and being developed. Various initial conditions are made because of some numerical errors in computations. These errors provide wildly diverging results for some dynamic systems. This makes it almost impossible to predict the behavior of long-term rendering. This happens even when behavior of this system is determined by initial conditions of very same system and no random elements are involved in process. Dynamic systems with such conditions are known as deterministic. In simple words, it can be said that such deterministic behavior or say nature of any kind of dynamic system is not able enough to make them predictable. Such deterministic behavior is known as deterministic chaos or just chaos. The whole theory of chaos is based on this simple fact. Each concept of chaos theory is based on these handful statements. Thus, an attempt was made by Edward Lorenz in order to describe the main concept of chaos theory in a single definition. 
  According to him: 
  “Present can determine the future, but approximate present cannot determine approximate future.” 
  Many natural systems such as weather, climate, etc follow the rules of chaos theory. They possess the same chaotic behavior as described in chaos theory. Not only natural system, but some artificial systems, or system that contains artificial components also follows the same chaotic behavior. Road traffic is a great example of such artificial system since it contains multiple artificial components that are not a part of nature. Chaotic mathematical model is analyzed in order to understand such behaviors of natural and artificial dynamic systems. For such analyzing process, analyzing techniques such as recurrence plots and Poincare maps are implemented. 
  Following is a list of fields and disciplines in which chaos theory is applied or is applicable:MeteorologySociologyPhysicsEnvironmental scienceComputer scienceEngineeringEconomicsBiologyEcologyPhilosophy 
  These are the field, in which chaos theory has been successfully applied, that too with expected results. There are many other fields, in which research is still going on about application of chaos theory.

  Dr. Lange graduated from medical school in 1981, right as a new plague swept across the globe. His story became intertwined with the story of HIV. At once a physician, scientist, AIDS activist, and medical diplomat, Lange studied ways to battle HIV and prevent its spread from mother to child. Fighting the injustices of poverty, Lange advocated for better access to health care for the poor and the vulnerable. He championed the drug cocktail that finally helped rein in the disease and was a vocal proponent of prophylactic treatment for those most at risk of contracting HIV. 
  The Impatient Dr. Lange is the story of one man's struggle against a global pandemic—and the tragic attack that may have slowed down the search for a cure. Seema Yasmin charts the course of the HIV epidemic and Dr. Lange's career as a young doctor who blazed his own path and dedicated his life to HIV. Yasmin draws on written records, medical journals, recorded discussions, expert testimony, and extensive interviews with Lange's family, friends, and colleagues around the globe—including the people he spoke to in the days before he died. She faithfully reconstructs key scenes from Lange's life and the history of the AIDS epidemic, revealing how Lange became a global leader in the fight against AIDS.

  Birds Beasts and Bedlam -...

  Birds, Beasts and Bedlam recounts the adventures of farmer-turned-rewilder Derek Gow, who is saving Britain’s much-loved but dangerously threatened species, from the water vole to beaver, wildcat to white stork, and tree frog to glow worm. Derek tells us all about the realities of rewilding: how he reared delicate roe deer and a sofa-loving wild boar piglet, moved a raging bison bull across the country, got bitten by a Scottish wildcat, returned honking skeins of graylag geese to the land and water that was once theirs, and restored the white stork to the Knepp Estate with Charlie Burrell and Isabella Tree. Derek’s first book, Bringing Back the Beaver, was a riotously funny and subversive account of his single-handed reintroduction of the beaver in Britain. Birds, Beasts and Bedlam, a natural successor to Gerald Durrell’s A Zoo in My Luggage, tells the story of Derek’s rewilding journey and his work to save many more species by transforming his Devon farm into a wildlife breeding center. He now houses beavers, white storks, water voles, lynx, wildcats, and harvest mice, with the aim of releasing them into the wild one day. Tearing down fences literally and metaphorically, Derek Gow is the one person with the character and strength of will to defy authority, bend the rules, and save our wildlife.

  "Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind" audiobook summary offers a concise yet profound exploration of Yuval Noah Harari's groundbreaking work on the journey of Homo Sapiens. This audio guide captures the essence of Harari's narrative, focusing on the pivotal revolutions that have shaped human history and society. 
  The journey begins with the Cognitive Revolution, a crucial genetic mutation 70,000 years ago that sparked unparalleled cognitive abilities in our ancestors. This was followed by the Agricultural Revolution 12,000 years ago, marking a significant transformation in human society, albeit with unanticipated challenges. The narrative then delves into the Scientific Revolution, which commenced 500 years ago, leading to an era of significant progress in understanding and manipulating the natural world.

However, this capability also brings complex moral dilemmas and challenges. This audiobook summary distills these complex themes into a digestible format, making it an efficient and engaging listen for both those familiar and new to Harari's work. 
  Efficiently curated, this summary focuses on the key messages and insights, providing a tool for reflection and understanding. It is an invitation to contemplate our species' trajectory, achievements, and potential future.
