Synopsis:

What mysteries lurk in the depths of a glass of water? What makes the wispy clouds of vapour rising from your cup of hot coffee? Or the puffy white clouds hovering in the sky? Why do bubbles in your fizzy drinks get bigger the longer you wait? What keeps Jelly's water from oozing out? Why does your tongue stick to something frozen? Professor Pollack takes us on a fantastic voyage through water, showing us a hidden universe teeming with physical activity, providing cogent explanations to many of water s long-held secrets. In conversational prose, Pollack exposes where some scientists may have gone wrong, and instead lays a simple foundation for understanding how changes of water structure underlie most energetic transitions of form and motion on Earth. This seminal work, peppered with whimsical illustrations and simple diagrams invites us to open our eyes and re-experience our natural world, to take nothing for granted, and to reawaken our childhood dream of having things make sense.

About the Author:

Scientist, speaker, and author, Gerald H. Pollack (Jerry) is recognized worldwide for identifying water’s fourth phase ― H3O2. He is known for his open-minded approach ― with ideas and with people.

His work with water earned him the inaugural Emoto Peace Prize, as well as the Prigogine Medal for Thermodynamics, and the NIH Director's Transformative R01 Award.

Pollack is the founding Editor-in-chief of the research journal WATER, founding Executive Director of the Institute for Venture Science, and organizer of the annual International Conference on the Physics, Chemistry, and Biology of Water. Further, he was awarded an honorary doctorate from Ural State University in Ekaterinburg, Russia, and was more recently named Honorary Professor of the Russian Academy of Sciences, and Foreign Member of the Srpska Academy. Pollack is a Founding Fellow of the American Institute of Medical and Biological Engineering and a Fellow of both the American Heart Association and the Biomedical Engineering Society. The University of Washington has bestowed on him their highest faculty distinction, the Faculty Lecturer Award.
