Description

Nobody knows - and just about nobody knows that nobody knows.

How something so pervasive can also be so mysterious, and how that mystery can be so wholly unrecognised outside the field of physics, is one of the greatest conundrums in modern science.

But as award-winning author Richard Panek shows in this ground breaking, mind-bending book, gravity is a cold case that's beginning to heat up. In The Trouble with Gravity, Panek invites the reader to experience this ubiquitous yet elusive force in a breathtakingly new way.

Gravity, Panek explains, structures not only our bodies and our physical world, but also our minds and culture.

From our very beginnings, humans' conceptions of gravity have been inextricably bound to our understanding of existence itself.

As we get closer and closer to solving the riddle of gravity, it is not only physics that is becoming clearer.

We are also getting to know ourselves as never before.
