I could have known: this booklet was way above my head. And that is mainly because the author almost exclusively focuses on the phenomenon of chaos in physical systems (weather, climate, warming water etc.). By consequence there’s a lot of mathematics and statistics involved. For my purpose (the chaos factor in the study of the history) there wasn’t anything useful in here.

I'm not sure this one truly counts as read. If read is each sentence from cover to cover, then yes. I read is comprehended well enough to pass a test, then no. The trouble isn't with the book itself, but that it didn't quite suit my purposes, which is why it languished for several months. Though my attention was caught on occasion, so maybe if I scan section headings I'll realize that I got more than I'm aware of now.
