Cosmological Milkshake

by Robert Ehrlich (Editor)

the book is arranged in five broad categories: distance, mass, temperature, speed, and time. The 135 essays cover such topics as how high you can jump, how big a water droplet can get, how heavy is light, and when you should add cream to your coffee. These clever pieces, accompanied by humorous illustrations, are clearly written and easy to understand, with a minimum of mathematics.
