Abstract
The controversial phenomenon of quantum (wave) chaos is reviewed using a simple analogy with classical linear waves in cavities. Estimates for the main statistical properties of wave dynamics are evaluated and discussed. The transient nature of wave chaos is emphasized and explained in detail.
