Los Angeles: Hollywood star Will Smith's son Jaden is reportedly penning a collection of essays on "string theory and chaos theory".

The 17-year-old is believed to be penning a tome which he hopes will inspire people, reported Us magazine.

"Jaden sees himself as a modern-day prophet and is working on a collection of essays. They're new takes on string theory and chaos theory, but more mystical.

"He hopes to have a spiritual following when he releases these," a source said.

Reports of Jaden's new collection of essays comes not long after he said he was on par with Italian astronomer Galileo, who played a major role in the scientific revolution during the Renaissance.
