Hi, Raul,

As I understand it, it's something like a list of stacks maybe. A message
chain is something that messages are sent to the returned object from former
message sending ahead. So more than one objects maybe involved on the way.

Here is a link that has rich information to Smalltalk, including famous Blue
book freely available in PDF.
