br. Tutti i grandi protagonisti della storia della scienza hanno gualcosa in comune: un'ingenua, entusiastica curiosità, l'abitudine di osservare, la consapevolezza di non possedere a priori la verità. È l'atteggiamento dei "cercatori di meraviglia" che da sempre anima chi tenta di capire il mondo interrogando direttamente la natura (con risultati migliori dopo Galileo, grazie all'uso sistematico del metodo sperimentale). Per mostrare guesto approccio in azione, Amedeo Balbi, astrofisico e divulgatore, ha individuato sei grandi domande che potrebbe porre anche un bambino (La Terra si muove o sta ferma? Perché le cose cadono verso il basso? Cos'è l'elettricità? Cos'è il calore? A che velocità viaggia la luce? Di cosa è fatta la materia?) e racconta come nei secoli gli scienziati si siano cimentati a rispondere. Arriva così a intessere storie affascinanti come quelle di Faraday, il libraio che inventò la dinamo, o di Becquerel, scopritore della radioattività, o di Cavendish che "pesò la Terra", solo per citarne alcune. E, in tutto questo, ci dimostra che la scienza non è una materia fredda e asettica, ma un percorso appassionante fatto da persone in carne e ossa, innamorate dell'universo e con l'ossessione di capirlo.
