One of the science editors where I work gave me a book she had just finished reviewing because she knows I like to read almost any kind of non-fiction. It’s called Fear of Physics: A Guide for the Perplexed. Having not finished high school, my education has a few big holes, many of them related to the math and science courses typically taken by students in the later half of high school, so this book was a great choice.
Chapter two opens with a quote:
"Physics is to mathematics what sex is to masturbation"
- Richard Feyman
