Honestly a really fun and interesting read! It went through basic physics of a bunch of items so it gave a more generic overview but it was easy to understand if you didn’t understand a lot about physics!

I love that the author is both a scientist and a Star Wars fan. He compares the physics of Star Wars to real-world physics. While he concludes that much of what happens in Star Wars is not feasible in our world, it is a great way to introduce real-world physics to others. He breaks it down into sections which makes this a fast and relatively easy read. He keeps the explanations relatively simple, although he also introduces equations and concepts that allow the reader to pursue further study on their own. I think a physics class from him would probably be enlightening and entertaining.

I was happy to learn that this kind of book even exists. It so cool to me that a scientist/physicist loves star wars and takes the time to compare the star wars tech to our own. I really enjoyed it :)
