Brian Clegg, "Ten Patterns That Explain the Universe" (MIT Press, 2021)
Our universe might appear chaotic, but deep down it's simply a myriad of rules working independently to create patterns of action, force, and consequence. In Ten Patterns That Explain the Universe (MIT Press, 2021), Brian Clegg explores the phenomena that make up the very fabric of our world by examining ten essential sequenced systems. From diagrams that show the deep relationships between space and time to the quantum behaviors that rule the way that matter and light interact, Clegg shows how these patterns provide a unique view of the physical world and its fundamental workings.Guiding readers on a t...

【뉴스페퍼민트】 《HUFFPOST》 브라이언 크리그의 「스타워즈는 SF인가: Star Wars vs. Science Fiction」
§이 글은 HUFFPOST에 게재된 Brian Clegg의 글입니다, 뉴스페퍼민트가 번역했습니다§ 디지털 혁명과 통신 혁명 등을 합리적으로 예측한 엘빈 토플러는, 일찍이 SF의 중요성에 대해 강조했습니다. '미래 사회학'이라는 또렷한 이유 때문이지요. 무려 33년 전에 낸 그의 책 〈미래 쇼크〉에서는, 학교에서 정식으로 SF를 가르쳐야 한다고 주장하기 했습니다. 왜 엘빈 토플러 얘기를 꺼냈냐고요? SF는 우주선과 미래에 대한 상상력에 한정되지 않기 때문입니다. 과학적 사고방식이 태생하는 자양분 넘치는 흙입니다. 그렇다면 SF의 구분으로부터 시작해야겠지요? ㅎ ㅎ ㅎ. 우리가 가장 좋아하는 〈어벤져스〉나 〈스타워즈〉 같은 작품들도 SF일까요? 그걸 지금 알려 드립니다. #SF #스타워즈 #과학 ▦ 《허핑턴포스트》 보러가기 https://www.huffpost.com/entry/star-wars-vs-science-fiction_b_8813238 ▦ 《뉴스페퍼민트》 보러가기 https://newspeppermint.com/2016/01/05/m-starwars/ ▦글쓴이 Brian Clegg 홈페이지 https://www.brianclegg.net/ ▤과학책장 인스타그램 www.instagram.com/science_bookcase/?hl=ko

Brian Clegg, "Ten Patterns That Explain the Universe" (MIT Press, 2021)
Our universe might appear chaotic, but deep down it's simply a myriad of rules working independently to create patterns of action, force, and consequence. In Ten Patterns That Explain the Universe (MIT Press, 2021), Brian Clegg explores the phenomena that make up the very fabric of our world by examining ten essential sequenced systems. From diagrams that show the deep relationships between space and time to the quantum behaviors that rule the way that matter and light interact, Clegg shows how these patterns provide a unique view of the physical world and its fundamental workings.Guiding readers on a t...

Brian Clegg, who is arguably the most prolific science writer since Isaac Asimov, and almost certainly the most prolific British one, has written a delightfully tantalizing book entitled How Many Moons Does the Earth Have?
