He's back! The physicist returns with an entirely new compilation
of questions and answers from his long-lived website where
laypeople can ask questions about anything physics related. This
book focuses on adjectives (practical, beautiful, surprising, cool,
frivolous) instead of nouns like the first two books (atoms,
photons, quanta, mechanics, relativity). The answers within Physics
Is are responses to people looking for answers to fascinating (and
often uninformed) questions. It covers topics such as sports,
electromagnetism, gravitational theory, special relativity,
superheroes, videogames, and science fiction. These books are
designed for laypeople and rely heavily on concepts rather than
formalism. That said, they keep the physics correct and don't water
down, so expert physicists will find this book and its two
companion titles fun reads. They may actually recognize similar
questions posed to them by friends and family. As with the first
two books, Physics Is ends with a chapter with questions from
people who think that 'The physicist' is a psychic and from people
who think they have the answers to life, the universe and
everything.
