The Universe Speaks in Numbers: How Modern Math Reveals Nature's Deepest SecretsHow math helps us solve the universe's deepest mysteries One of the great insights of science is that the universe has an underlying order. The supreme goal of physicists is to understand this order through laws that describe the behavior of the most basic particles and the forces between them. For centuries, we have searched for these laws by studying the results of experiments. Since the 1970s, however, experiments at the world's most powerful atom
How math helps us solve the universe's deepest mysteries One of the great insights of science is that the universe has an underlying order. The supreme goal of physicists is to understand this order through laws that describe the behavior of the most basic particles and the forces between them. For centuries, we have searched for these laws by studying the results of experiments. Since the 1970s, however, experiments at the world's most powerful atom-smashers have offered few new clues. So some of the world's leading physicists have looked to a different source of insight: modern mathematics. These physicists are sometimes accused of doing 'fairy-tale physics', unrelated to the real world. But in The Universe Speaks in Numbers, award-winning science writer and biographer Farmelo argues that the physics they are doing is based squarely on the well-established principles of quantum theory and relativity, and part of a tradition dating back to Isaac Newton. With unprecedented access to some of the world's greatest scientific minds, Farmelo offers a vivid, behind-the-scenes account of the blossoming relationship between mathematics and physics and the research that could revolutionize our understanding of reality. A masterful account of the some of the most groundbreaking ideas in physics in the past four decades. The Universe Speaks in Numbers is essential reading for anyone interested in the quest to discover the fundamental laws of nature.Binding Type: Hardcover

Solids are great
I bought these so I could keep moisturizer on my heels yet keep my toes cool. I love the solid colors but there is absolutely no stretch on the pretty flowered ones. I guess it’s the way they are woven. They are really hard to stretch over the heel. The solid colors are soft and super comfy.

These run small!
I had ordered these before in black and grey and they were great, fit perfect. But these run small. I had noticed another reviewer said the same but thought I'd risk since they were cute. I'm not sure what color has to do with it, but tight at ankle and at 'toe'-less part. They are now in my donate bin. Waste of money, will not purchase this brand again. Great idea, inconsistent quality.

Solid colors fit, patterned ones too small
As others have said, the blue socks with flower pattern were much smaller than the solid blue pairs- so small I couldn’t even get it on my foot (shoe size 8). The solid blue pairs I like and still wear, but it’s a bummer to only have 2 out of 3 fit when they cost this much.
