How to survive an earthquake. How to make an invisibility cloak. How to turn lead into gold. How to read someone’s mind. Physics = tedious and unfathomable, right? No longer. If you thought physics was all about measuring the temperature of an ice bucket or trying to understand complicated equations, think again. How to Destroy the Universe will make you see the world around us through fresh eyes.
