Description

A complete update to the hit book on the true physics at work in comic books, featuring more heroes, more villains, and more science 

Since 2001, James Kakalios has taught “The whole lot I Had to Know About Physics I Learned from Reading Comic Books,” a hugely popular university course that generated coast-to-coast media attention for its unique method of explaining complex physics concepts through comics. With The Physics of Superheroes, named probably the most best possible science books of 2005 by Discover, he introduced his colorful way to an even wider audience. Now Kakalios presents a totally up to date, expanded edition that features much more superheroes and findings from the cutting edge of science. With three new chapters and completely revised during with a splashy, redesigned package, the book that explains why Spider-Man’s webbing failed his girlfriend, the probable cause of Krypton’s explosion, and the Newtonian physics at work in Gotham City is electrifying from cover to hide.
