These we call paradoxes. <b>The paradoxes Al-Khalili </b>offers are drawn chiefly from physics and astronomy and represent those that have stumped some of the finest minds. For example, how can a cat be both dead and alive at the same time? Why will Achilles never beat a tortoise in a race, no matter how fast he runs? And how can a person be ten years older than his twin?</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> With elegant explanations that bring the reader inside the mind of those who've developed them, <i>Al-Khalili</i> helps us to see that, in fact, paradoxes can be solved if seen from the right angle. Just as surely as Al-Khalili narrates the enduring fascination of these classic paradoxes, he reveals their underlying logic. In doing so, he brings to life a select group of the most exciting concepts in human knowledge. Paradox is mind-expanding fun.</div> <br /></div>
