The weird and wonderful world of the Buffyverse—where the melding of magic and science is an everyday occurrence—provides a fantastical jumping-off point for looking at complex theories of biology, chemistry, and theoretical physics. From surreal vampires, demons, and interdimensional portals to energy conservation, black holes, and string theory, \u003ci\u003eThe Physics of the Buffyverse\u003c\/i\u003e is serious (and palatable) science for the rest of us.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJennifer Ouellette\u003c\/b\u003e is a science journalist and the author of several books, including \u003ci\u003eThe Calculus Diaries\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Physics of the Buffyverse\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eBlack Bodies and Quantum Cats\u003c\/i\u003e.
