And even though the calculations exceed our current abilities, there has never been the slightest mathematical, experimental, or observational indication that these laws exert anything but total control. Unexpected and impressive phenomena can surely emerge from the coordinated motion of a great many microscopic ingredients—typhoons to tigers—but all evidence suggests that were we able to work out the math for such large groups of interacting particles, we would be able to
