"Do you know what a quark is? Or the difference between DNA and genes?
Can you name the strongest force in the universe? Actually it’s called the “strong force,” which shows that sometimes science can be easy.
It was easy when I was a child, before I ever entered a classroom. I learned about dinosaurs by reading picture books and building plastic models of their skeletons.
Those long-forgotten pursuits, sparked by my more recent friendship with a theoretical physicist, inspired me to bridge the normally separate disciplines of physics, chemistry and biology in a humorous narrative, without chapters, histories, formulas or complicated diagrams."

你知道什么是夸克吗?你知道DNA与基因的区别吗?你能说出宇宙最强力量的名字吗?其实答案很简单,是“强作用力”。

科学有时就是这么简单。当我还是个孩子,还没上学时,我通过阅读画册和组装骨骼模型来了解恐龙。

最近结识的一位理论物理学家朋友让我回忆起那些被遗忘的兴趣,启发我忘掉章节、过往研究、公式以及复杂图表,将物理、化学和生物这些各自独立的学科在一篇有趣故事中结合起来。

《大象制造手册》将以生动有趣的方式,为你讲述关于我们周围最重要的力和结构的故事。
