Descriere

This book is a time machine!

Young readers can take a thrilling ride through the history of science - a true-life tale full of twists and turns, unforgettable people and unexpected revelations.

Written by award-winning science writer Anne Rooney, this highly visual full-color guide sets out information concisely and with clarity, accompanied by with beautiful illustrations. Discover how our world has been radically transformed by chemistry, biology, and physics - from the discovery of fire and the spoked wheel, right through to genetic engineering and the Information Age.

 

Includes:
- Stone Age: early humans, creating fire and using tools
- Ancient civilizations: early writing, astrology and medicine.
- The Medieval and Modern periods: the Renaissance, the Solar System and the Plague
- 18th & 19th century: the Enlightenment, vaccinations and evolution
- 20th century: World Wars, computers, and the space race
- Contemporary life: the internet, genetic engineering and Covid-19

 

Featuring figures such as Leonardo da Vinci, Marie Curie and Ada Lovelace, this is a great way for readers to discover the history of science, or to reinforce their understanding by putting facts in context and developing a sense of chronology and perspective.

An illuminating read for young people aged 8+.
