Science is all around us, creating patterns both large and small that have the power to help us understand the universe and our own everyday experiences. Physicist and BBC television star Helen Czerski looks at ordinary items in daily life—the swirling tea in your cup that mirror the swirling of cloud systems, the behavior of pigeons, the mechanics of popcorn, how refrigerator magnets stay put, the nature of coffee stains—and uses small everyday things to explain the larger phenomena happening around us. This book makes science seem fun, and gives us back a sense of control and possibility over the directions our world could take.
