The Science of Making Glass

By Tj Allen

You Did Not Invent Transparency. You Negotiated With Sand.
Glass is one of the few materials that behaves like it has a secret.
It looks solid.
It acts like a liquid's fossil.
It pretends to be simple.
It is not simple.
Glass is sand that survived a trial by fire and decided to hold its shape out of stubbornness.
Before steel, before silicon chips, before fiber optics carried your arguments across oceans at the speed of light, somebody discovered that if you heat dirt hot enough, it forgets its previous life and becomes something entirely new. Not improved. Not upgraded. Transformed.
This book is about that transformation.
It is about entropy frozen mid-sentence.
