This book offers an informal, easy-to-understand account of topics
in modern physics and mathematics. The focus is, in particular, on
statistical mechanics, soft matter, probability, chaos, complexity,
and models, as well as their interplay. The book features 28 key
entries and it is carefully structured so as to allow readers to
pursue different paths that reflect their interests and priorities,
thereby avoiding an excessively systematic presentation that might
stifle interest. While the majority of the entries concern specific
topics and arguments, some relate to important protagonists of
science, highlighting and explaining their contributions. Advanced
mathematics is avoided, and formulas are introduced in only a few
cases. The book is a user-friendly tool that nevertheless avoids
scientific compromise. It is of interest to all who seek a better
grasp of the world that surrounds us and of the ideas that have
changed our perceptions.
