Physics for Men

Who would've known there was so much thought behind a guy's every move? Sure, he's impressed bystanders with the lengths he'll go in order to reach the remote without getting out of the recliner. But his mission's success is just dumb luck...right? Better go to the replay. Whereas a simpleton might think his foot kicking down on the magazine and sending the clicker sailing through the air and into his outstretched hand is a fluke - it's actually a very calculated move. The angles of impact and trajectory were carefully thought out. Drag and resistance were factored in. And velocity was figured in order to time the catch perfectly. Not as easy as first thought. "Physics for Men" shows readers that there is a science behind being that awesome.
