Megadisasters

Our best technology seems helpless in preventing such 'megadisasters' as Hurricane Katrina. Together with earthquakes, climate change, stock market crashes, these are complex systems hard to predict. Florin Diacu recounts the heroic efforts to understand them, our limited progress so far, and stories from those caught up in them.
