Overview

What do Sir Isaac Newton, Albert Einstein and a typical kindergartner have in common? Aside from playing with their food and bad hair, they demonstrate a unique ability to ask deceptively simple questions: Why do objects fall? Why do monkeys have tails? What is the lowest possible temperature?

Until now, the problem with understanding physics has always been the answers. Fortunately, you don't need to be a genius (or a parent) to gain a fundamental understanding of physics, thanks to The Handy Physics Answer Book.

Here you'll find more than 800 deceptively simple questions accompanied by a similar number of relatively simple answers. (Okay, keep your pocket protector in place - there's plenty here to challenge even the most avid amateur physicist.) Gravity... Magnetism... matter.. light - the whole shebang - it's a piece of cosmic cake with The Handy Physics ?Answer Book!
