DESCRIPTION:
'What is motion?' 'Why is every snowflake different?' 'Why is life symmetrical?' To answer these and many other questions, Professor Brian Cox uncovers some of the most extraordinary natural events on Earth and in the universe and beyond. In seeking to understand the everyday world, the colours, structure, behaviour and history of our home, we develop the knowledge and techniques necessary to step beyond the everyday and approach the universe beyond. Think you know our planet? Think again.. From the immensity of the universe and the roundness of Earth to the form of every single snowflake, the forces of nature shape everything we see. Brian will answer questions on Earth that will illuminate our understanding of the universe. A Sunday Times best seller. A breathtaking and beautiful exploration of our planet, this groundbreaking audiobook accompanies the BBC One TV series, providing the deepest answers to the simplest questions. Pushed to extremes, the results are astonishing. Forces of Nature takes you to the great plains of the Serengeti, the volcanoes of Indon
"Lots of pictures and general ideas" according to scott koysh. If you watch lectures by Brian Cox, this is not that. If you studied Physics in college, do not expect a mind blowing break through. Light on words/equations, heavy on (great) pictures. All that said, it's a wonderful book if you go in with the right expectations. I'd still by it again! Better than fifty shades of non-sense or some vampire/wizard garbage.. LOVE IT! This book IS a Force of Nature! LOVE IT!. Five Stars Toby again, Dr Cox does his thing, and knocks it out of the ball park!!!!
