In this past weekend’s NYT Sunday Book Review, J.D. Biersdorfer reviewed Jennifer Ouellette’s The Physics of the Buffyverse.
Biersdorfer’s review is generally positive,
The book does not delve too deeply, but biology, electricity, cryogenics, string theory, temporal anomalies, Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle, Schrödinger’s cat and thermodynamics are all touched on in the context of “Buffy†and “Angel†plot points. Examples are often reinforced with descriptions of recent scientific experiments and developments.
Hmm…I wonder if Ouellette covers the likelihood of everyone suddenly bursting out in song together.
