50 Physics Ideas You Really Need to Know

---

We encounter physics every single day before even leaving the house—from the alarm clock that tracks time to the smartphone that connects to global satellites via gravity. In "50 Physics Ideas You Really Need to Know," Joanne Baker uncovers the core physics principles that dictate our universe. The book breaks down complex sciences into 50 accessible, digestible essays, guiding readers from foundational concepts like Newton's laws of motion, gravity, light, and energy, through to the mind-bending frontiers of quantum mechanics, chaos theory, superconductivity, and dark energy. Packed with short biographies of iconic physicists, timelines, and clear diagrams, it acts as a comprehensive introduction that makes even the most daunting scientific theories easy to comprehend.
