who coined chaos theory
Best Answer: No, Thats Murphy's Law. Chaos Theory is a mathematical concept that has to do with the transformation of a system over time. It was first proposed by Henri PoincarÃ© in the late 1800's. However, Edward Lorenz really established the theory in the mid 60's. The most famous analogy (although specific only to a single property of Chaos Theory) is the butterfly effect, where a butterfly flapping its wings in one place causes a storm in elsewhere.
