Synopsis

The What on Earth? Wallbook of Science & Engineering (MINI EDITION) tells the complete story of human invention from the dawn of civilisation to the present day and beyond. A beam of brilliant white light contains a timeline that shines into Sir Isaac Newton s prism in c. 1680 before spreading out into a spectrum of colours that represent all the main themes of science & engineering, from abstract to infinity. More than 1,000 pictures and captions tell the story of Maths, Measurement, Physics, Chemistry, Medicine, Biology, Earth, Land, Building, Invention, Transport, Communication, Sky and Space. A5 in format and opening into a fully illustrated timeline more than 1 metre long, The What on Earth? Wallbook of Science & Engineering is perfect for all ages and can be read like a book or unfolded and stuck on the wall. Includes pocket magnifier and 70-question multiple-choice quiz and crossword.
