The Magick Of Physics: Uncovering The Fantastical Phenomena In Everyday Life,New
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
An awardwinning Oxford physicist draws on classic scifi, fantasy fiction, and everyday phenomena to explain and celebrate the magical properties of the world around us.If you were to present the feats of modern science to someone from the past, those feats would surely be considered magic. Theoretical physicist Felix Flicker proves that they are indeed magicjust familiar magic. The name for this magic is condensed matter physics. Most people havent heard of the field, yet more than a third of physicists identify as condensed matter researchers, making it the most active area in the subjectwith good reason. Condensed matter is the solids, liquids, and gasses that surround usand the more exotic matterswhich dictate every aspect of our present existence and hold the keys to a brighter future, from quantum computing to reallife invisibility cloaks.Flicker teases out the magical threads that run through our daily lives. Condensed matter physics allows you to create anything abiding by the laws of realityand often, we find that those laws can be bent. Flicker explains how to create new particles that never existed before, how to make crystals shoot out of such intense light they can cut through metal, how to separate the poles of a magnet, and more.The books endearing conceit is that you are an aspiring wizard whose ability to cast spells (i.e. to do science) is dependent on your grasp of the fundamentals of our universe. This book contains no equations or chartsinstead, its full of owls and mountains and infinite libraries, and staffs and wands, and martial arts and mythical islands ruled by sage knotmakers. Part of the books magic is that, for all these fanciful trappings, it still feels practical and applicable. The Magick of Physics will open your eyes to magic that surround us everyday.
