Answer:
∆Super science∆
Explanation:
Comic-book superheroes might seem an unlikely starting point for a popular book on physics. As James Kakalios relates, the ur-hero Superman was born in 1938 as a Depression-era revenge fantasy — the Man of Steel's first enemies were corrupt landlords and Washington lobbyists. And in the tough darwinian world of pulp comics, the aim of story-telling is to make you turn the page, not scientific accuracy.
But as Kakalios points out, the exploitsof a superhero can illustrate scientific principles, although you may need to make a ‘miracle exception’. Once you accept that Superman's stablemate the Flash can somehow run at arbitrarily high speeds, then you can study the consequences, such as traction, deceleration forces and nutritional requirements. Indeed, sometimes the comic-book writers explore the science themselves. Kakalios quotes an adventure in which the Flash, in order to save the citizens of a North Korean city from a nuclear blast, runs at close to the speed of light and suffers relativistic effects: “As his body sloughs off the screaming after-effects of near light travel, eyes of almost infinite mass turn towards the blaze engulfing Chongjin.” There can be poetry in the physics.
The ‘science-of’ the latest popular franchise has been a flourishing subset of the popular-science genre since the success of Lawrence Krauss's The Physics of Star Trek (Basic Books, 1995). You can see the appeal for authors and publishers. Fans can be seduced through their curiosity about the infrastructure of their favourite universe — could a machine really travel through time? could a man really fly? — into explorations of genuine science. There is thus a benignly educational motive. And, of course, you can sell an awful lot of books to all those fans.
But to get it right you have to focus on the needs of the readership: a fan wants to read a book about the franchise, not a textbook. Of the new crop of such books reviewed here, Kakalios's work on superheroes is probably the most successful. He admits to being a fan himself, the text is drenched with fan-friendly references to the comics, and the physics, even when Kakalios points out where the comics got it wrong, is drawn out sympathetically and with good humour.
