This description of a course from The Teaching Company was in my email today. I found it a funny (intentionally or unintentionally on the part of the writer?) thing to say to someone with small children. Especially the part that I've bolded. Or the very last sentence.

Chaos
by Professor Steven Strogatz, Cornell University
Chaos theory—the study of the behavior of sensitive systems over time—affects nearly every field of human knowledge, from the arts to zoology. Journey with Cornell University Professor Steven Strogatz to the heart of this revolutionary field and discover new ways to think about the world. From the surprising tale of how chaos theory was discovered, to the ways it can help us solve mysteries like the nature of consciousness, Chaos gives you a solid introduction to a fascinating discipline that has more to do with your life than you may realize.
