"The Science Behind Superman's Flight" by Luciano Vecchio explores the fascinating intersection of comic book mythology and scientific principles. This illustrated work delves into the mechanics of Superman's iconic ability to fly, examining the physics, aerodynamics, and biology that could, in theory, make such feats possible. Through engaging visuals and accessible explanations, Vecchio unpacks the concepts of gravity, propulsion, and the limits of the human body, inviting readers to think critically about the nature of superhuman abilities. As readers navigate the science behind the man's extraterrestrial capabilities, they gain insight into both the imaginative realm of superheroes and the real-world scientific theories that inspire them.

Tammy Enz became a civil engineer because of her awe of the massive steel bridges that spanned the Mississippi River. She just had to figure out how they worked. Today, she still likes tinkering and figuring out how things work. When she isn't tinkering, she fixes up old houses and conducts experiments in her garden and kitchen. Most of all, she loves reading books about anything and everything and asking 'why?' J. E. Bright is the author of many novels, novelizations, and novelty books for children and young adults. He lives in a sunny apartment in the Washington Heights neighborhood of Manhattan, with his difficult but soft cat, Mabel, and his sweet kitten, Bernard. Luciano Vecchio currently lives in Buenos Aires, Argentina. With experience in illustration, animation, and comics, his works have been published in the US, Spain, UK, France, and Argentina.
