Strutture ovvero Perchè le cose stanno in piedi

Gordon makes physics accessible by connecting it to things like bridges and buildings. I wonder what motivated this approach and how he decided which examples to include.

The way these concepts are broken down felt very intuitive, but I’m curious if others found it easier to grasp than traditional engineering texts.

The stories of failures like the Tacoma Narrows Bridge are fascinating. I wonder what led to the selection of these particular examples and what lessons they were meant to convey.
