So, while Newtonian physics doesn't work for objects outside the range that Newton knew about, it works perfectly OK for objects inside that range as a good approximation.

For West, the introduction of fractional calculus to supplement Newtonian physics represents just one of many ways in which humans have surpassed their previous understanding of the universe.

“Otherwise, gravity would be too weak at the edges of the field,” says Erin Catto, the game physics programmer who created Box2d, the physics engine that runs behind the curtain at Angry Birds.

The interplay between Newtonian physics and geopolitics isn’t merely metaphorical—it’s a framework that explains the relentless push-and-pull of international relations. From NATO’s ...
