Soaring on scandal

Tiger Woods drives the sales of physics book sky-high

THE book inside Tiger Woods' wrecked car has seen an increase in sale after photographs of the accident scene surfaced. The book Get a Grip on Physics by science writer John Gribbin is up 2,268th position on the Amazon sales list from 396,224th.

A paperback copy of the book was snapped lying on the floor of Woods' SUV. The accident had occurred outside the golfer's home near Orlando, Florida, last week.

"This is one of my older and lesser-known books — a guide to new physics for non-scientists," the Independent quoted Gribbin as saying.

He added: "I can only guess that Tiger has been interested in the various stories about the Large Hadron Collider, and wanted to learn more. Several of my books have been doing better than usual this year."— ANI
