Zusammenfassung: Synopsis This innovative book brings together two disciplines - science and art - and enables readers to produce their own computer-generated displays. Forty-four colour plates and 200 black and white pictures showcase the diagrams that can easily be reproduced using the accompanying CD-ROM. It is possible to create diagrams that indicate predictability or unpredictability of physical, chemical, ecological, mathematical or economic systems, using colours and shades of grey. In addition, diagrams can be drawn purely for their aesthetic value. Directed both at scientists and laymen, technicians and artists, this combination of book and CD-ROM is the first of its kind.
