More than this, trying to explain what we see around us can even help us to understand physical principles more fully: in his autobiography, Richard Feynman attributes his Nobel prize to his observations of a wobbling plate in the Cornell University cafe. This fascinating book sets many riddles based on these phenomena, some simple and others requiring real insight - answers are given! At the end are a few riddles that have as yet defied explanation.This book will appeal to a wide readership.
