Sinopsis
Why exactly is the Earth round?
How is it that boomerangs can turn in mid-air?
And why do cats always land on their feet?
It’s time to stop thinking in straight lines…
'A wonderfully fascinating book with answers to so many everyday questions you never knew you needed to know.' Mark Miodownik, author of Stuff Matters
From the solar system to spinning tops; hurricanes to hula hoops; powerplants to pendulums, one mysterious force shapes almost every aspect of our lives. A force which, despite its ubiquity, continues to confound, baffle and surprise.
Artfully moving between astrophysics and anthropology, The Science of Spin provides a sweeping journey through space and time, from the creation of the Earth to the advent of the ‘fidget spinner’. Charting the development of engineering and technology from the earliest prehistoric drills to the turbine engine, critically acclaimed author and scientist Roland Ennos presents a riveting account of human ingenuity and the seemingly infinite ways spin affects our daily lives.

Hardcover. Condición: New. Gyroscopic forces and gravitational spin are not just fundamental forces in how the universe was formed and the Earth rotates, but also significant forces in everyday life, down to the atomic level. Scientist Roland Ennos explores the way that circular motion operates, explaining in non-technical language the connections between cosmological activity and the human environment, whether applied to drills and pumps, ballet dancers and cricketers, or a child's spinning top.

Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. Overlooked, under-explored and misunderstood this is the story of spin, the force which, quite literally, makes the world go round. In this comprehensive and wide-ranging book, Roland Ennos examines the seemingly infinite ways spin affects our lives, from the structure of galaxies to the way we walk. Artfully moving between astrophysics and anthropology, Ennos provides a riveting account of spins human history, charting the development of engineering and technology from the earliest prehistoric drills to the turbine engine. The Science of Spin brings physics back down to earth, zooming in on our own biomechanics, and revealing the surprising similarities between ballerinas and basketball players. Answering questions as disperse as why the solar system is the shape it is, to why cats always manage to land on their feet, The Science of Spin rekindles a childlike fascination with rotation and sheds light on this often overlooked, but crucial, area of life. Its time to stop thinking in straight lines Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9780861546718
