Synchronization in nature and science
In the universe, there are numerous rhythms that are perfectly attuned to each other. From the thousands of fireflies that flash synchronously along the tidal rivers of Malaysia, to the moon that rotates in resonance with its orbit around the Earth, and our heartbeat regulated by tens of thousands of pacemaker cells. Although these phenomena seem different, they are based on the same principle of synchronization.
About the book 'Sync'
Synchronization is a relatively new field of research in which mathematicians and physicists study how spontaneous order arises from chaos. This book describes fascinating discoveries, from a French scientist who investigated his sleep-wake rhythm in an underground cave in Texas, to the Dutch physicist who in 1665 discovered that his two pendulum clocks ran perfectly synchronously. It is suitable for a broad audience and comparable to books like Chaos and The Elegant Universe.
