The Matter of Everything: How Curiosity, Physics, and Improbable Experiments Changed the World

bySuzie Sheehy

Centered on how curiosity, physics, and improbable experiments changed the world, The Matter of Everything shows Suzie Sheehy tracing how individual lives intersect with institutions, ideas, and historical change. The Matter of Everything combines scientific research, fieldwork, and carefully chosen case studies, allowing the evidence to complicate easy judgments and familiar explanations. Seen through the lens of science, The Matter of Everything explains not only what happened, but why competing interpretations still matter. By the end, how curiosity, physics, and improbable experiments changed the world emerges as a layered story of competing motives, unintended results, and choices made under pressure.
