A spectacular musical and scientific journey from the Bronx to the
cosmic horizon that reveals the astonishing links between jazz,
science, Einstein, and Coltrane More than fifty years ago, John
Coltrane drew the twelve musical notes in a circle and connected
them by straight lines, forming a five-pointed star. Inspired by
Einstein, Coltrane put physics and geometry at the core of his
music. Physicist and jazz musician Stephon Alexander follows suit,
using jazz to answer physics' most vexing questions about the past
and future of the universe. Following the great minds that first
drew the links between music and physics-a list including
Pythagoras, Kepler, Newton, Einstein, and Rakim -- The Jazz of
Physics reveals that the ancient poetic idea of the "Music of the
Spheres," taken seriously, clarifies confounding issues in physics.
The Jazz of Physics will fascinate and inspire anyone interested in
the mysteries of our universe, music, and life itself.
