This volume introduces force as the cause of change in the physical world and asks how well the effect that forces have on the motion of a body can be predicted. Systems as diverse as colliding galaxies and decaying nuclei are considered, and essential concepts such as energy and momentum are explored. The book also discusses chaos and the limits of predictability.
