please simply explain what's the "chaos theory" and where could i get
the information about it?
"Chaos Theory" is more a general term rather than a specific theory.
The outline of the concept is:
1) For certain systems, small changes in the present state of the
system can lead to very large differences in a future state of the
system.
2) It is impossible, even in theory, to have exactly precise
measurements of any system.
3) Therefore, it is impossible to make long-term predictions about
certain systems.
Those systems where small changes to the initial conditions can result
in very large differences down the road are called "chaotic" systems.
The weather is believed to be a chaotic system. John Conway's
mathematical game of Life is another example of a chaotic system:

An excellent place to read about chaos is Dr. Matthew Trump's short
online course:

Greg Rae has got a slightly different way of explaining it which might
also prove helpful:
