Chaos in the Cosmos: The Stunning Complexity of the Universe
Barry R. Parker
He had worked for months on one of the most famous problems in science-the problem of three bodies moving around one another under mutual gravita tional attraction-and what he was seeing dismayed and trou bled him. Poincare was shocked and dismayed by the result-so disheartened he left the problem and went on to other things.
