Motion Mountain

I have found my Holy Grail - in the form of a 1500-page PDF book called Motion Mountain.

It's a (text)book on physics,
...written in a way that should appeal both to people who prefer thinking in images and to those that prefer thinking in words...
And it is
[a book] written for the curious: it is entertaining, surprising and challenging on every page. With little mathematics, starting from observations of everyday life...

All my subconscious fancies rolled into one.

And to top it all, it's free.
