Lewis Carroll Epstein

Lewis Carroll Epstein is the author of layman's books on physics that use an idiosyncratic mix of cartoons and single-page brain teasers to pull the reader into advanced concepts in classical mechanics, quantum theory, and relativity.[1][2]

His books "Thinking Physics" and "Thinking Physics is Gedanken Physics" have been republished for almost 30 years, the former being on the Exploratorium recommended science reading list.[3][4][5] He credits his teaching style to experience presenting technical testimony to trial juries and congressional hearings.[6]
