Physics Squared

by Graham Southorn, Giles Sparrow

Why should we care about Schrödinger’s poisoned cat? Why is the Higgs boson so important it’s been called the God Particle? What is the point of string theory, and what’s string got to do with it? Physics Squared answers all these questions and more, from Newton’s basic principles to the special theory of relativity. Physics Squared gives you a rocketing tour right to the core of physics, from reminders of basic experiments to the cutting edge where science blurs into philosophy. With 100 topics divided into 10 bite-size chapters, this is the ideal booster on the science that governs our universe.
