About this listen

As smartphones, supercomputers, supercolliders, and AI propel us into an ever more unfamiliar future, How to Speak Science takes us on a rollicking historical tour of the greatest discoveries and ideas that make today's cutting-edge technologies possible.

Wanting everyone to be able to "speak" science, YouTube science guru Bruce Benamran explains - as accessibly and wittily as in his acclaimed videos - the fundamental ideas of the physical world: matter, life, the solar system, light, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, special and general relativity, and much more.

Along the way, Benamran guides us through the wildest hypotheses and most ingenious ideas of Galileo, Newton, Curie, Einstein, and science's other greatest minds, reminding us that while they weren't always exactly right, they were always curious. How to Speak Science acquaints us not only with what scientists know, but how they think, so that each of us can reason like a physicist - and appreciate the world in all its beautiful chaos.

In the beginning this book seemed like it targeted high school students, or people with non-scientific backgrounds and perhaps it does but not exclusively. I have a science background and although I easily followed much of the book some parts I had to replay several times to understand.
The book presents ideas in a somewhat chronological order so it shows how scientific understanding develops. Additionally, it’s presented in a conversational manner with periodic humor. The book, and especially the narrator, make it a very entertaining listen. I highly recommend this book.

Loved everything. A suggestion- There are 100 chapters and no chapter titles, making it difficult to find the topics I want to repeat. Can Audible add chapter titles?

The narrator and personal, humorous tone of the text made it fun learning
