Project Description

From virtual reality to the endless digits of pi, Blatner is fascinated with both the scientific and metaphysical mysteries around us.

• Spectrums: Our Mind-Boggling Universe From Infinitesimal to Infinity re-introduces us to six fundamental spectrums in the world around us: numbers, size, light, sound, heat, and time.
• In The Flying Book we learn how an 800,000-pound airplane can lift off. (The answer isn’t necessarily what you learned in school!)
• The Joy of Pi explores the fun and fantastical nature of the world’s best-known irrational number.
• Curious about Judaism? David was, so he teamed with Rabbi Ted Falcon to write a friendly and open-hearted discovery of Jewish history, beliefs, traditions, and celebrations in Judaism for Dummies.
• Blatner co-authored one of the first-ever books on the subject of virtual reality, in 1991: Silicon Mirage: The Art and Science of Virtual Reality.
