Roberto Piazza says: "Physics should be made simple enough to be amusing, but not so trivial as to spoil the fun." This is exactly the approach of this book in making the science of 'soft matter' relevant to everyday life things such as the food we eat, the plastic we use, the concrete we build with, the cells we are made of.
