Clarke, along with hundreds of sci-fi movies and TV shows, have explored an array of exotic, at times mind-bending themes, among them the existence of intelligent aliens, time travel, and parallel universes. One often asked question is whether such things are scientifically plausible. In this volume, modern physicists and other scientists weigh in and try to answer that question.

These books use scientific and engineering practices to investigate everything from the planet beneath our feet to the forces all around us. Topics include matter and its properties; force, motion, and energy; Earth and space; and organisms and environments.
