Why is it that the first thing nurses do when you land at the hospital is to insert a conduit for intravenous fluid? What's the deal with the Salty Water?The physics-loving geek within me was thrilled with Electric Universe: How Electricity Switched on the Modern World by David Bodanis.
Despite having spent a large portion of my professional carrier on the subject, this book helped me understand a few new things about electricity. More specifically, it covers a lot of new information about the electric system within our bodies.
The whole book is nonetheless about pure physics fun. Because of it and the fact that it isn't written in fable form, it is not for everyone. On the other hand, physics students or those who love the quantitative side of nature will find this to be a must read. Yes, those who love tinkering with their audio system are also included within the latter group. Enjoy!
