Book Fave: The Physics of Christmas
by Admin on Nov.09, 2010, under Book Faves
Those who know me will recognize two of my passions blended here into one book, The Physics of Christmas. Fascinating stuff from the science of snowflakes to the search for the Star of Bethlehem, to the thermodynamics of turkey cooking (and of other holiday treats)! The author does a great job of sharing a great deal of information with just enough tongue firmly planted in his rosy cheeks so as to not upset your sensibilities too much.
