Perhaps predictably given its name, Chaos Theory hasn’t exactly been the easiest thing for most people to understand.

Despite a best-selling book trying to explain what it all means and a couple of block-buster Hollywood films with the theeory as their central premise, the best most of us usually come up with is that it’s something to do with butterflies in a South American jungle somehow causing cyclones half a world away.

That’s not the half of it, says Iraqi-born British theoretical physicist Professor Jim Al-Khalili in this very simple to understand documentary. Chaos theory he says, might also hold the answer to one of the most puzzling questions we’ve ever faced - where did life on earth come from?

Going back to the work of mathematician Alan Turing and following through Mandelbrot’s ‘‘thumbprint of God’’ to the present, Professor Al-Khalili patiently explains how science has ‘‘pushed past religion and philosophy in daring to tackle this most fundamental of questions’’ in explaining where we come from.

Filled with beautiful imagery and simple layman terms, this is a definite must for science fans, but also for anyone looking to learn something as well as entertained.
