“Love at Absolute Zero” is the story of Gunnar Gunderson, a 32-year-old physicist at the University of Wisconsin. The moment he’s given tenure at the university, he can only think of finding a wife, causing his research to falter. With his two partners, Gunnar is in a race against MIT to create new forms of matter called Bose-Einstein condensates, which exist only near absolute zero. To meet his soul mate within three days—that’s what he wants and all time he can carve out—he and his team are using the scientific method, to riotous results.Think of the book as the romance of Sara Gruen (“Water for Elephants”), the science of Michael Crichton (“Jurassic Park”), and the humor of Nick Hornby (“High Fidelity”).
