review 1: What a fun concept. I actually read the second book on relativity first, so I had to go back and pick this one up. I actually found this to be slightly easier to "absorb" than the other book, but maybe that's because I've read several books on this topic.I really like how Orzel mixes his conversations with Emmy throughout his explanations as opposed to just using them as a frame. For me, knowing that others readers/dogs might be getting tripped up in the same places made me feel more comfortable. To make sure I could do more with this info than just read it, I tried paraphrasing some of this in conversions with my dog. Not surprisingly, he didn't have much to say on this subject. Oh well.
review 2: The actual title is: "How to Teach Quantum Physics to Your Dog"... more.Very cool concept, but beware, it is heavy reading! Newbies to Quantum physics, like me, struggled a bit through some chapters, and skimmed over others. But very informative, if you are really interested.I found the addition of the dog a nice angle at first, but got quickly irritation, especially when you are trying to wrap your head around Quantum tunneling or the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle. less
