Reviews / Votes
"Filled with examples and simple demonstrations and experiments you can do yourself, it's a hands-on approach to the fun of discovery. Here is a route not only to understanding physics - which, after all, deals with the biggest cosmic questions such as workings of the universe - but doing physics. --Skeptical Inquirer, Vol. 33, Issue 1, January/February 2009More details
