Description
A YOUNG WOMAN'S QUEST TO UNDERSTAND THE UNIVERSE The future. In response to global warming, the "Ecological Community" has banned science and technology, returning to an austere agricultural life and nature-worship. One young farmer, Fizz, is tormented by her burning curiosity to explore the universe.Leveraging a controversial legal loophole and her "Outsider" father's invention, Fizz travels back in time and engages in conversations with Galileo, Newton, Edison, and Einstein. Unraveling the mysteries of the universe, she relives the contradictory ways in which science and technology redefine the human experience. Returning as a changed person from her epic quest, Fizz faces the decision that will change her world forever. ____________This unique book weaves the bizarre and inspiring history of physics into the touching, dramatic, personal story of a young woman named Fizz who comes of age while voyaging across the centuries.
