Editor's Recommendation
★ Continuing the classics: "Charming Materials" and "Poetic Atoms", "Unread? Explorer" is another master-level popular science work.
★ Excellent word-of-mouth: The original word-of-mouth has sold well and has now been translated into 12 different languages. Wall Street, The Guardian, Science, Scientific American, Cox Book Review and other media have received rave reviews. The Chinese version is recommended by Wanwei Steel.
★ Seeing the details, vivid and interesting: starting from extremely common small things, subtly leading to the physics behind everyday phenomena. The principles in small things can also govern the balance between the ocean and the atmosphere, assist human exploration of the starry sky, and even determine the development direction of modern technology.
★ Beautiful text and rich knowledge: covering the six basic fields of physics (heat, force, sound, light, electricity, magnetism) and dozens of physical phenomena.
Introduction
"The Storm in the Teacup" is an interesting physics science book. It starts from everyday life and takes you to explore the wonders of physics from the phenomena that can be found everywhere. You will find in your reading that cooking popcorn and launching rockets use the same law, and the weighing of scales and the lifting and lowering of Tower Bridge are based on the same principle; You don't have to fly to space, the tea in the cup can tell you the secret of the planet's rotation; You don't have to chase the sea breeze, a lit candle will tell you how ocean currents travel around the globe...... Every little thing that people are accustomed to hides a delicate physics code that can explain the magnificent and magnificent natural wonders. From a scientific perspective, everything ordinary is interesting.
This book will allow you to discover the interesting and magical side of physics from your daily life, allowing you to look at everything around you with a new perspective, and is suitable for all people who love life and are full of curiosity.
About the authors
Helen Czerski, PhD in Physics from the University of Cambridge, University College London, Physicist at University College London, studies ocean bubbles and climate change. Chersky began participating in the production of popular science programs for the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) in 2012 and has hosted more than a dozen scientific documentaries, including "The Mystery of Color", "The Trajectory of the World" and "Supersense: The Secret Abilities of Animals". Currently, Chersky writes popular science columns for Focus magazine and Wall Street magazine, and participates in the production of popular science programs for the BBC. In 2014, she was selected as Columnist of the Year by the Federation of British Journal Publishers (PPA). In 2018, the Royal Physical Society awarded her the Lord William Thomson Kelvin Medal for her outstanding achievements in the field of physics.
Wonderful book review
The author finds the miracle of science in every stone, every drop of rain, and every grain of sand.
—Jordan Ehrenberg, professor of mathematics at the University of Wisconsin
The author makes us understand that the excitement of everyday life is comparable to the field of view of the Hubble Space Telescope and the reaction in the hadron collider.
– Jimmy Hariri, Professor of Physics at the University of Surrey
The book...... It can test whether you learn "real knowledge" or "talk", and it will also give you a set of advanced thinking methods.
——Wanwei Steel
Awesome...... It is especially suitable for people who are full of questions about science, including children and adults who are still curious like children. Robert Hooker will love this book.
——"Wall Street"
In this day and age, all our questions about the workings of the world can be answered immediately through Google. Physicist Chersky encourages us to push away from search engines...... Why not learn some simple physics first? This way you can solve the puzzles on your own.
——Scientific American
Chersky's pursuit is to deepen people's daily scientific literacy, which is indispensable in the present.
——Science
Helen Chersky focuses on cracking physics puzzles in everyday life. Whether you can distinguish between reflection and refraction, or you can't figure them out at all, you can use this book as a valuable introductory read.
- The Guardian
Chersky is a thoughtful teacher, and her books genius encompass a wealth of knowledge.
——Cox Book Review
