How Chaos Theory Explains Trump’s Rise To Power
In his new book, political scientist Brian Klaas asks whether every move we make could potentially produce a domino effect. Klaas draws attention to the fact that small, seemingly trivial events can have far-reaching consequences. The author speaks with Walter Isaacson about his belief that randomness shapes our world, from personal circumstances to geopolitical events.
