4.9/5 (31069 ratings)

Description:“Following in the footsteps of Stephen Hawking's A Brief History of Time and Simon Singh's Fermat’s Last Theorem this exceptionally accessible book will you leave marveling at the wonders of the world and, if you didn't listen to your science teachers, wishing you had. Graham writes with the mind of a physicist and the soul of a poet.” —Nicki Hayes, CCO, The Communications Practice, author of First Aid for Feelings.“Only a few writers have managed to turn the highly technical jargon of science into language accessible for interested lay readers. Isaac Asimov showed us how it could be done, and Carl Zimmer and Brian Greene are continuing today. In Molecular Storms, his first book, Liam Graham has shown that he has the essential quality required to join this group, a love of first learning then explaining how the universe works." —David Deamer, Professor of Biomolecular Engineering, University of California, Santa Cruz, author of Assembling Life.Why is the universe the way it is? Wherever we look, we find ordered from stars to planets to living cells. This book shows that the same driving force is behind structure the incessant random motion of the components of matter. Physicists call it thermal noise. Let’s call it the molecular storm.This storm drives the fusion reactions that make stars shine. It drives whirlpools and currents in atmospheres and oceans. It spins and distorts molecules until they are in the right orientation to react and form new substances. In living cells, it drives proteins to fold and molecules to self-assemble. It is behind every detail of the astonishing molecular machines that control cellular processes.Using cutting-edge research, Molecular Storms takes us on a dazzling journey from the early universe to the interior of the smallest living things. There, in a nanoscale world of biological devices, it explains the physics behind the chemical system which we call Life.Whether you're someone with a general interest in science or a student looking to add context to your studies, this book is for you. Molecular Storms is an accessible and captivating read that will deepen your appreciation of the power of science to explain the world.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
