Paradox: The nine greatest enigmas in science

Jim Al-Khalili presents his favourite scientific conundrums, all of which have famously been referred to as paradoxes.


Throughout history, science has set out to answer the most puzzling of questions: Can the second law of thermodynamics be broken? Do we have free will? Is time travel possible? Jim Al-Khalili presents his favourite scientific conundrums, all of which have famously been referred to as paradoxes, but which turn out not to be paradoxes at all. Schrödinger’s cat anyone?
