I've only read the first chapters, but I like it very much. It's easy to program the examples in the book to see the behavior of some simple chaotic systems. It's enligtning to do the calculations with variable precision, so for the HP 50g it's a perfect application for the LongFloat library, or NewRPL.

"Astronomical Algorithms", Jean Meeus.

Probably the best book on the subject. Interesting again with a calculator, especially a fast calculator. Wink
