Il diavoletto di Maxwell: La fisica nascosta nella vita quotidiana

by Partha Ghose, Dipankar Home

Il volume propone un centinaio di facilissimi "esperimenti" che rendono la fisica più familiare. Spiega numerosi spettacoli della natura (l'arcobaleno completo, la luna blu, il lampo verde...) esamina situazioni sorprendenti (il canto della pentola, il ghiaccio che fuma, il pepe che scappa...) e stimola a verificarle concretamente: si può far bollire l'acqua in una pentola di carta, rendere invisibile uno spillo dentro una tazza, congelare più rapidamente un liquido riscaldandolo.
