About the book

In a Flight of Starlings by Giorgio Parisi is an autobiography for adult readers.

From a Nobel Prize-winning physicist, an enlightening and personal journey into the practice of ground-breaking science. The world is shaped by complexity. In this enlightening book, Nobel Prize winner Giorgio Parisi guides us through his unorthodox yet exhilarating work to show us how.

It all starts with investigating the principles of physics by observing the sophisticated flight patterns of starlings. Studying the movements of these birds, he has realized, proves an illuminating way into understanding complex systems of all kinds - collections of everything from atoms to planets to other animals like ourselves.
