Storm in a Teacup: The Physics of Everyday Life

Natuurkunde voor leken, aan de hand van alledaagse voorbeelden.

I am definitely a simpleton when it comes to physics, but Czerski's explanations in a story form; more often than not humorous or amusing; were easy for me to follow and understand. I've already noticed myself looking at the world around me a little differently now. Tea and toast will certainly never be the same, and I love this book for that. If you feel like you know absolutely nothing about physics, but have an interest to learn, I would certainly say this is a good place to get your feet wet.

Storm In A Teacup is a book written by a physicist that explains how knowledge of physical laws enhance your understanding about the world that we live in. This understanding can be an enriching experience.

After reading this book, I feel this is the way to learn new things. Acquired knowledge, even if it is about subatomic particles, is only useful when we are able to relate it to the small and large phenomena that happens around us. This way of learning can help us in finding ways to improve our lives too.
