The physics behind Bond, James Bond.
James Bond would have died a thousand deaths if not for Q, the genius behind the pen grenades and weaponized sports cars that have helped Britain's most famous secret agent cheat death in twenty films. Here Barry Parker demonstrates how science and technology have been as important to 007 as good looks, shaken martinis, and beautiful women.
Using entertaining sketches and nontechnical language, Parker explains the basic physics behind the gadgets, cars, and stunts in a number of Bond films, from the jet packs in
Thunderball
to the dynamics of daredevil bungee jumping in
GoldenEye.
If you've ever wondered whether the laser could have actually cut Bond in half (
Goldfinger
), if a wristwatch could really unzip a woman's dress (
Live and Let Die
), or whether your car could do the 360-degree barrel roll from
The Man with the Golden Gun,
this book is for you.
