Storm In A Teacup

Have you ever considered the beach as process instead of a place?

Have you ever thought of equilibrium to be a bad place to be?

Well then, it's time to put a wee storm in your teapot.

If what's going on in Brexit Britain is getting on your nelly a bit, perhaps you need a reminder that the universe planet Earth bobs around in is a violent place, and we are lucky to be in a bubble that merely gets jostled a bit .

Back here in Brexitville bubbles burst too, and someone out there is going to provide a route to a new equilibrium. Like it or not, Britain is about to find itself in a future state; there is no going back to old equilibriums. We had better get used to it: British politics is no different to the way of the universe, just more brutal.

Storm in a Teacup is a fabulous introduction to the universe at action - starting with exploding popcorn and carrying on to our last peaceful cup of tea in Europe - and we too are being swept along by processes that leave us with no places to hide.

This book just makes me want to think about life all over again.
