Sync: How Order Emerges from Chaos In the Universe, Nature, and Daily Life

The principle of organization is built into nature. Chaos itself is self-organizing. Out of primordial disorder, stars find their orbits; rivers make their way to the sea.
Nature forms patterns. Some are orderly in space but disorderly in time, others orderly in time but disorderly in space.
Prigogine showed that the steady states that matter reaches in systems that are out of equilibrium tend to be organized. After chaos there is information.
