Sitting still in a quiet room, you might just be able to convince
yourself that nothing is moving. But air currents swirl about you.
Blood rushes through your veins. The atoms in your chair jiggle
furiously. And the planet you are on is whizzing through space 35
times faster than the speed of sound. In Zoom, Bob Berman takes a
thrilling tour around the wondrous and myriad motions that shape
every aspect of the universe. Spanning astronomy, geology, biology,
meteorology and history, he explains how clouds stay aloft, how the
earth's rotation curves a ball's flight, how a mosquito's familiar
whine is tuned to a perfect A sharp, how the day gets longer every
century, and much more.
