Physics certainly is not my area of knowledge- in fact the last contact with physics as a subject was high school. This book was fascinating in its interweaving of sciences, inventions, and experiments that established fundamental principles in a variety of fields throughout history. The quite large role that cats’ ability to land on their feet in all of this was certainly surprising. After finishing, I still can’t explain a cat’s righting behavior, but I don’t care since it was fascinating to hear about others journeys to try to do so.
