Physics for Dogs

• Bring down the mailman with the correct ratio of stealth and brute force
• Poop strategically--indoors and out--by understanding variable-mass systems
• Open any cupboard with Newton's First Law
• Play fetch by calculating velocity and maximum range
• Catch squirrels by accounting for friction, weight, and air resistance
• And much, much more!

With this hilariously prescriptive how-to, pooches of every size and temperament will learn to chase cars--and catch them!

John-Andrew Sandbrook is a senior mathematical sciences and computer science major at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. As a lifelong dog owner, he's seen his fair share of food-sneaking, revenge-taking, and chair-warming.

Dara Flynn, MS received her Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering and her Master of Science in Materials Science from Worcester Polytechnic Institute. The proud owner of a physics-ally inclined Doberman, Flynn has survived many of these scenarios on the wrong side of a clever canine. From several strategic puking incidents and a laughable attempt at a sled pull to valiant conquests of ants and cowardly shivers at the smallest sign of thunder, Flynn observed and conducted countless dog-years of field experiments and lab trials before undertaking coauthorship of this book.
