- 1989 ----- color ----- 58 min ----- vhs
- (Nova series) Scientists are making surprising sense out of some very chaotic behavior in nature. In fact, many scientists now believe that turbulent processes like weather, waterfalls, irregular heartbeats, and even brain waves actually have a hidden and highly-ordered structure, indicating that chaos and uncertainty are more often the rule than the exception--a startling divergence from Issac Newton's long-accepted vision of a clock-work universe unfolding with perfect precision. NOVA explores a revolutionary new science that is learning how to analyze, and derive benefits from a universe of chaos.
