Chad Orzel on teaching physics to your dog

Chad plugs his new book How To Teach Physics To Your Dog (inspired by his old blog posts in which he explained physical principles to his dog Emmy) in Scalzi's Big Idea series.

I was fortunate enough to read an early draft of this book a couple of years ago, and it was really good, one of the best popular expositions of modern physics I've seen. I haven't yet read the finished version, but presumably it's even better now.
