The Adventure of Physics Vol I Fall Flow and Heat
Carefully observing everyday motion allows us to deduce six essential statements everyday motion is continuous, conserved, relative, reversible, mirrorinvariant and lazy. This text explores how these six results are deduced and how they fit with all those observations that seem to contradict them.
