By explaining the physics behind ordinary objects, this book unravels the mysteries of how things work. Using familiar examples from everyday life and modern technology, this book explains the seemingly inexplicable phenomena we encounter all around us. As it examines everything from roller coasters to radio, musical instruments to makeup, and knuckleballs to nuclear weapons, How Everything Works provides the answers to such questions as why the sky is blue, why metal is a problem in microwave ovens, and why some clothes require dry cleaning. With fascinating and fun real-life examples that provide the answers to scores of questions, How Everything Works is nothing short of a user's manual to our everyday world.

It's rare for me to read a book that I want to re-read after finishing a couple of chapters. This book is so dense with useful knowledge that I know much of it has already leaked out of my ears. Over the course of the year or so that it's taken me to read this tome, I've incorporated my learning into a dozen or more lunch conversations. Time has dimmed much of what I learned, so I want to read it again. My book queue has accumulated a fair amount of (literal) dust, though, so it may be a while before I get back to it. In the meantime, I'm sure that I will be encouraging friends and family to borrow it and to read it cover-to-cover. It is a fantastic survey of the modern marvels that we take for granted in our everyday lives. ( )
