Physics isn’t confined to a laboratory – it’s at work in your kitchen, your bath, even your car, as television presenter and writer Richard Hammond demonstrates in this award-winning title. From the basics of electricity to the makeup and charge of atoms, All About Physics is packed with fascinating facts and hands-on experiments that take readers on a high-energy journey through space, time, and beyond. There’s “light” reading on waves and the electromagnetic spectrum, a closer look at friction, and an exploration of temperature and heat, alongside answers to age-old puzzles like why the sky is blue and quirkier questions such as why golf balls have dimples. With richly detailed illustrations, clear and concise text, and a glossary covering the most common terms, this book turns the invisible, the unexplained, and the downright weird into a thoroughly enjoyable read.
