Physics of Christmas (in)

Club Toastmasters International meetings, the meeting generally ends in a session called 'Table themes', in which members and guests who have not yet spoken Gets a chance to stand and speak to the group. "Topicsmaster" provides questions to each person, then improvises a discourse on the 2-minute as a response.

The question that I received the week was last sitting in my local club:

How is it possible that Santa deliver all these gifts in one night?

Fortunately, I was able to answer this question because I read it very entertaining the physics of Christmas of Roger Highfield.

The Physics of Christmas

The book covers not only the legends surrounding Santa Claus, but also the historical context of the history of Christmas, the science behind the creation of Christmas, the psychology of happiness holiday (and depression) and other aspects of the feast dinner. To learn more about the book, read our review.
