Description

A lively and engaging introduction to the progress of science over the ages

Science is key to understanding the infinite distances of space, the tiniest living organisms body and the history of our planet. From Hippocrates and Aristotle to Isaac Newton and Stephen Hawking, men and women have asked how things work, and through experiments have made earth-shattering discoveries.

This inviting Litte History takes readers to the stars. We delve beneath the surface of the planet, chart the evolution of chemistry's periodic table, and explore the physics that explain electricity, gravity, and the atoms that make up our bodies and everything around us.
